To Bob's family & Dear Carol,

I will always remember Bob as such a wonderful, caring person; someone who will be surely missed by the residents of Pinelake Gardens and those of us who worked with him. I always admired Bob's willingness to help, his great sense of humor and delicious recipes. I regret that I will not be able to attend Bob's Memorial since I am in No. Carolina with my husband, but Bob is someone I will never forget.
