As a classmate at East and roommate at MTSC, I am truly sorry to hear of your passing. I will remember you as long as I live as the most kind and tolerant person that I have ever known. You are truly deserving of God's eternal grace.

Jackie,
Bob and I had been friends and associates for over 30 years and never in all that time did I ever hear him say an unkind word about anyone.
He made it a point to call me every MLK day so I talked to him just last month. I'll miss those conversations and I will never forget him. My world is richer for having known Bob.
God has a special place for men of Bob's character.
I share your grief.
