So sorry to here about Bob. I worked with Bob for many years in the IPACS group in GM/EDS. I also worked with him in the old mail room days at GMISCA when I was just a college grad. I had lost touch after he retired but would occasionally hear about him from Mike McCullough. You have my deepest sympathy.

Sue and Heather, we were so sorry to hear about Bob. I know that we haven't seen you very often the last year, but we think of you often. It seems that everytime we went to Carmel's you weren't there. If there is anything that we can do please call. We love you, take care. Mike and Diana Becraft
