We were shocked to learn of Bob's death. I worked 20 years with Bob on Engine 13 and we had many laughs and good times together. He had stories to tell which could be filled with a lot of detail, and an often heard comment in the firehouse was, "Come on, Bob, get to the punchline!" I was very happy when he made LT although it meant he left Engine 13. He was a good guy and a good fireman. Our sincere condolences to his family. Andy and Linda Gorkis
