You're in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time. We feel fortunate to have known Bob and to be able to call him family. He leaves a wonderful legacy in his dear wife and wonderful children. When we think of Bob we will always remember his delightful toast at Ang & Joe's wedding: "May you be as happy today as you are right now."

Lewandowski Family. I had the pleasure of working with Bob back in the day of the Walgreen Express on Kirchoff and we when we made the move to the other store when the RX Expess closed. I remember he would often send me on a Chinese Food run for him on the weekends we would work together. I learned so much working with Bob. He was kind, and caring and one of my favorite Pharmacists to work with. I remember with adoration the way he spoke about Jane and her first day of kindergarten. He will be missed. I will keep your entire family in my prayers.
