Bob was a kind, generous, thoughtful, and respected professional. I had the pleasure to work with Bob for many years. I could always count on him to offer insight and a different way to evaluate a scenario. His infectious smile and laugh will be missed. My condolences to his family. RIP Bob, Thank you for your friendship. It has been a privilege to have known you.
