I'm not sure you'll see this, as Mr. Olds passed a year ago, but I worked for Bob at Hayflich & Steinberg many years ago. I left WV, got married and have had 4 children. I just had my 4th and planned to send Bob a picture as I have done with the others, when I learned of his passing. I know yesterday must have been difficult being the anniversary but I pray you have found comfort and peace in God. Bob was always so kind to me in a time when I was just learning how to be an adult. He was a wonderful mentor.

Adviser, mentor, counselor, teacher. We counted on you for many years and you were a true advocate and wise listener.

I recall our times together fondly and will never forget what you taught me.

Thanks for caring about our family.

Dad and me--May 31, 2008.
