We were so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. We always enjoyed talking with him at the gym. He was always so pleasant and kind. We will miss his presence in our daily lives.

I am so so sorry to hear that your father passed away. He was a very interesting man to sit and talk to. I enjoyed celebrating his 90th birthday with him and his family. Rest in peace Robert.
