Mark, was so sorry to learn of your father's death. I didn't hear about it until after the funeral or I would have been there. Have fond memories of Summer weeks at Chute Pond. Sending hugs and comforting thoughts to you, Lori, Mike, and of course sweet Millie and her family.

My deepest condolences. Bob surely was a great neighbor growing up across the street from him and Milly.
