Words can not express my sadness in hearing this devastating news. So many memories of sharing so many of life's experiences....RIP Carol. I'm so sorry we didn't get the chance to take one last trip down memory lane together.
My heart felt sympathy to all the family.

Lived next door to Bob's Dad "Doc" in Santa Venetia, and worked with Bob at Telco starting in 1955. I vaguely remember Carol in that small country community. My condolences to the family and a special hello to Bob.
