Bob was a first cousin of mine. His mother and mine were sisters. Though I am considerably younger than Bob, we kept in touch through the years. I especially enjoyed his stories as a combat engineer in the South Pacific during WW2 as they were similar to my service in Vietnam. He was the oldest of my cousins on both sides of the family. I will miss him and offer my mass this coming weekend for him. My sympathies to his wife, Claire.
