I am so sorry for your loss. Bob was our doctor and friend. The last we saw Judy and Bob was motorcycle week in Ocean City. It has been a long time ago. I remember Mike talking about Bobby hanging over the front of the boat and your grandfather Pret coming to fish with his cowboy boots on. We always enjoyed seeing you kids too. I lost my wonderful Mike in 2017. May God be with you all and live with your wonderful memories until you meet again. My love and prayers for you all.

Dear Family,
I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of your Father. He will be missed greatly. Over the years I have often thought about Bob and Judy.
I worked in the old ER @ Memorial back in the 60's with your Dad and learned to know your Mother and I knew each of you as babies. I continued working in the ER when Bob was our director and my family were patients of his both at the Red Lion and York offices for many years.
I have very fond memories of pig roasts at the farm and the wonderful entertainment Bob, Pret and Joey gave.
I regret that I will not be able to come pay my respect at any of the services due to my decreased ability to stand and walk. I know the services will be attended by many people, many of whom I worked with over many years@ Memorial.
I will certainly be there with you in spirit.
My Deepest sympathy, Love and Prayer to each of you.
Sincerely,
Mary Jane

My heart goes out to Dr Bob´s family. Many yrs ago I worked below where his family practice was and would go upstairs and hang in the break room with Doc, Julie, Jen and his other staff. He was great Doc taking care of my Mother and many other patients, loved his bluegrass, running his boys to ice hockey practice and relaxing at the house. He was such a family man and real down to earth. He never made anyone feel like they were beneath him but opposite....he never bragged he was Dr so if you loved his band and followed him you might not known he was a Dr. Anyone that knew him...knew family was first. Though I haven´t seen him or the family for many yrs I´ll never forget him. May you all know the impact your Dad had on many ppl and how much he will be missed. Prayers to you all. He will always be close to your hearts and watch over you. May God wrap his loving arms around you all as you go through this time. And remember he lived life to the fullest. Celebrate his life as he did.
