I discovered yesterday that Bob passed last May. He was part of our Quality Assurance family when he worked at North Island. I was Bob's work leader when we worked together at the Testline in the late 80's. I'm sorry I didn't know earlier but I'll pass his obituary to all those that knew him in the Quality Department
