Bob was my mentor in the TaxAide program. His patience with our transition from doing it with a calculator and a ruler to keep on the right line to computers (no math errors!) was priceless. He taught us with experiential notes that made it personal as well as helping us along. His generosity and kindness will always be remembered. diane Temple

I was fortunate to interact with Bob when he was volunteering as an AARP Certified Tax Preparer. He was the Local Coordinator at the LaVerne site, and he was such a pleasure to volunteer with. He told me about his wood working, and he brought in samples for me to see. They were amazing. He was always kind, professional, and just the nicest person. Betsy MacLaren

My dear Marie - My heart goes out to you and your family on the loss of your beloved Bob. He was such a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and friend and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. We will hold him in our hearts until such time as we shall see him again. With my love and deepest sympathy --- Dixie

Many Thursday days of wonderful golf with Bob and thank YOU for the hamburger get-to-togethers

Marie My Prayers are with you and your family..

Marie, I am so sorry for your loss, which is a loss for all of us who knew Bob. He was my mentor and teacher in the Tax Aide program, we worked side-by-side for many years and became good friends. He was indeed a kind and generous man. What I remember most about him is how patient and calm he was. When his many clients would come to have their taxes done, if I was available and Bob was busy I would offer to take care of them, but most of the time they would say, "Oh no, I want Bob." A true gentleman.

My heart aches for you Marie.
Bob´s commitment to you , his family, his country, his community and friends were exemplary. A life well lived indeed. My love to you and his family!

Sending our blessings to you and your family. Heaven received a new angel.

Marie, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart hurts for you. I will miss your posts with all your travels! Lynn Browning Grant

Dearest Marie,
I am so glad that you and Bob found one another and shared a life of joy. I can't imagine how your heart feels since losing him. I am keeping you in my prayers.

Bob was indeed talented. His wood art was innovative and masterful. But his love and respect for his wife, my friend, Marie, was inspirational for waiting for and finding one´s true soulmate.

Uncle Bob was a joy to be with. A lasting memory of him is his great love for gathering with family. So glad we got to do that over many years of reunions. He will be missed by us all.

Bob was a talented, generous and kind man. It was an honor knowing him. Our heartfelt love and sympathy to Marie and to all his family.

Marie...I am so sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you. Sending love and prayers
