My condolences and prayers for the Anders family. Take comfort in the knowledge that Bob is with the Lord now and will never suffer again. His work in this world is complete. I was proud to have had the opportunity to work with Bob both as my boss and later as my co-worker. He was always fair and proper. He was a hard worker with the best attitude about his job. He cared about people (a rare commodity these days). He was well thought of at McMaster-Carr and will be missed.

worked with.

Bob was a wonderful friend and co-worker. We worked together for many years. It was always fun when Bob was around. He loved the Sox.



I saw him a day before he was taken away to meet his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Trust me, he will be welcomed in heaven. His faith was strong. Jesus Christ said, from John 14, "1"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God[a]; trust also in me. 2In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4You know the way to the place where I am going."



I will see you Bob when the glorious resurrection occurs.

Bob will be missed by many. I worked with Bob on and off the past eighteen years. He was a hard working man. More importantly, he exemplified honesty and integrity. My prayers are with your family at this most difficult time.

We are deeply saddened with the passing of Bobby. His illness was such a shock. He is in a better place now and his family can rest easy that he is no longer troubled. He was a very good man and we will all miss him being part of our lives.



God's speed Bobby!
