My first meeting was with Bob in 1960 when he was the first classmate to welcome me into the group at Nav School in Waco, TX. I always remembered Bob, and we met again several years later when assigned to the same AF base in Nebraska. Bob was a good friend and a very sad loss at such an early age. My condolences to his family and friends.
