It is interesting how some people, who have departed tis earth quite some time ago, remain fresh in our memories. Coincidentally, I was just thinking about Bob the other day, What a delightful man he was...a pleasure to have as a boss at Kodak with his positive perspective and his always-present sense of humor.

People like him are becoming rarer by the day, and I am privileged to have had the honor of knowing him.

Sincerely,

Joe Derso

Dear Nancy-

Back in the 70's, I worked with Bob in Film Planning. His high level of intelligence, zany sense of humor, dedication to the task, ability to get right to the point, and treating everyone as important were refreshing to say the least.

I was truly privileged to have known him. He was a rare type of person, and will be sorely missed by everyone whose life he touched.

My prayers remain with you and your family during these very difficult days.

Hello Nancy,

My heart sank to my feet last night when I saw Bob's name in the paper. I am sad for you, but we both know he is with our savior in heaven. He was a wonderful person and I toughly enjoyed our many conversations. Please know if you need anything you can call. Bob was a blessing in my life even though the time I knew him was short. Many blessing to you and your family. God Bless You.

Love in Christ,
Nancy L. Hensel, RN

To Nancy and Family,

It was my great pleasure to have known and worked with Bob. He was a man of great integrity and the kind of gentleman so rarely found in corporate America. His humor was never more apparent than when he was trying to keep Dick Cedar on the straight and narrow.

My deepest sympathy.... and to Bob - "until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand."
John
