Shirley, my sincerest sympathy to you and all your family. Working with Bob made bad days at Goodyear better. I can't tell you anything about Bob you don't already know but, just want to say that I held Bob in the highest esteem as a man, of not just intelligence, but of integrity. He loved and, took great pride in all his family, as I'm sure you
all did in Him!
