Barb-
Our best wishes go out to you, Keith, and Christopher. Bob truly brought out the best in people. His infectious laugh still makes me smile. I think everyone from AEI/BDL would agree that we had some great times (and laughs) beacuse of Bob. We will both miss him very much.

Dear Barbara, Keith & Chris,
I was deeply sadden and shocked to just hear about Robert's passing. Its been quite a number of years since I've seen Robert but I will always remember his jubilant personality, his unforgetable laugh and the good times we shared growing up as cousins.
My deepest, sincerest sympathy goes to you at this most difficult time in your life.
Fondly, Cousin Barbara
