So sorry to read of Bob's passing, he was a great guy. Have know the family for a long time since Jim and I were classmates. Bob had an office in the same building in Waterloo as my daughters Chiropractic office and we were able to visit with each other after many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Bob was a pleasure to work with at Iowa Legal Aid and listening to his stories about zip lining and the delicious hams he had on holidays and seeing pictures of his grandchildren and little dog. He talked of his family and wife highly. He will be dearly missed. My condolences to the family. Bob was a good man. May he Rest In Peace.
