Sarah and I have fond memories of our friendship with Bob and Carolyn in South Congregational Church, Pittsfield, MA, from 1960 - 1964. We considered them good friends, especially since we shared our Minnesota and First Congregational Church, Minneapolis, backgrounds in common. We've lost touch with Bob and Carolyn since their retirement and move to North Carolina, and our move from Pittsfield to Northern Virginia. We are now, in retirement, back in Minneapolis in the winter (and "up north" in the summer, and once again attending First Church, where we also knew Bob's brother Dick, who was the Minister at First Church during my parents' later years, and who, in fact, officiated at the funerals of my Grandmother, Mother and Father in the 1980s-90s. We are deeply saddened to learn of Bob's death. He (and Carolyn) both have a special place in our memories, and we shall always remember them with regard and deep affection.

Rest in Peace dear friend.
I will keep in mind your infectious and mischievous grin as I complete the cross-word puzzles I have saved all these years.

With affection, Kathy C.
