My prayers to the Fahey family. We don't always know all of the lives that we touch and have an affect on. "Bob" affected my life and holds a special place in my heart and my life - HE WAS MY FIRST BOSS while I was in an OJT program 44 YEARS AGO. After I graduated high school in 1969, Bob hired me as a part time employee at Noel...not many students get hired by their OJT "training company" so I was OH SO GRATEFUL. The small trucking company we worked for eventually moved to So. St. Paul and, although I was asked to go to SStP, I opted to stay closer to home so I could secure full time employment. I was sharing my first work experience recently with my children and Bob's name(and Carol-the office manager)sprung from my mouth as people who encouraged and inspired me....Bob trusted me with tasks and responsibilities in my OJT job that allowed me to develop administrative skills and master work ethics that carried me throughout my carreer. I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS GENTLE GIANT - I ONLY HAD ONE "FIRST BOSS". My only regret is that I wasn't able to stay in touch and that I didn't see this notice in time enough to attend the services. My prayers for the entire family as you live out his legacy. God bless youall.
