"Foggy" Bob was a dedicated member of the Westport Volunteer FD in the 1980's and early 90's. I truly enjoyed his humor and dedication to the fire service. I wish his family well.

Dear McManus family,
I am SO so sorry for your loss. Bob was a good friend of my brother Bob's, and such a great person to be around! He was a staple at our Thanksgiving dinners, and never failed to compliment me on my stuffed mushrooms (of which he ate plenty!). I'm devastated. Sincere condolences to all.
He will be sorely missed.
Love,
Lynne
