I would like to communicate my condolences to the Dawson family for their loss. Although, I met Bob only twice, I know he was a great man, because of being acquainted to his son Rick. I enjoyed the days Rick and I spent Boy Scouting and watching Chris grow. My thoughts and prayers are with you both and your entire family during this time.
