My husband Edward Hanson was part of Amerprise when
Bob was working we got to know him from all of the trips that they qualified for. We looked forward to seeing
Bob and Marie every year and have many fond memories of the time we spent with them they were always adventures and fun. We are sadden to hear of their deaths but they will be in our
hearts for ever.
