Always remembering Bob, such a kind, gentle, wise man. Bob taught me so very much about the newspaper business, journalism and life. Forever grateful.

Dear Lorraine and family,
I send my deepest sympathy to you and your family. Bob was such a mentor to me for all of those years at the Item. He taught me so much about the business, life and "sports". He was so inspirational in helping me in the newspaper field. He made working for him such a pleasure.

I am in Florida until May, but am sending my love. You all will be in my prayers. I will always remember dear "Bob" and his kindness to me and my family.
With love,
Karen
