Dear Helen,
Brian and I have just gotten this sad news. You and Bob have been friends to us since we started attending Wildwood's Fire Convention about 20 years ago. We were looking forward to seeing you both there, as always. Please accept our condolences and our thanks for his years of service, as well as your own. He was a soft spoken and determined friend to many. You're much in our thoughts. Cackie & Brian

Very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I met Bob while attending fire classes around the State. He was always full of information when you met him, and always had a kind word to say. He was very dedicated to the fire service and of course, the NJ Fire Museum. His hard work and dedication was admirable. Prayers to his family during this difficult time.

Dear Bob was a true gentleman and a patient, kind and warm friend to my father, Tony. He was always ready to lend a helping hand and was so caring toward people as well as his cats. I am deeply saddened by his passing. My father and I were so very fortunate to have known this special man. My sincere condolences to Mrs. Burns and family.
