Rest easy Bob. I enjoyed getting to know you and going on liberty with you when we attended OIS, Pensacola, Fl in late 1982. You were a real gentleman and a thoughtful submariner. Until we meet again.

He loved diet coke. As service manager he treated everyone fairly. I never saw him angry. He believed in his men. He was very good to me.
