Lally, I was so sorry to hear that Bob had passed. I know he had endured a lot over the last several years while waiting for a new heart. While he may not have gotten his new heart on earth I'm sure he is now running marathons. I will always remember his kindness for bringing doughnuts to our office. I'm so sorry for your loss. You will be in my prayers. Carolyn Johnson

Dear Lally,
Bob's passing is certainly a sad day in our lives. I still remember the very first time we met him for lunch. Little did we know then that he would make quite an impact on the Filipino community with his zest for life, passion for sharing his photos and videos, and just being an all around great friend. He will be sorely missed.
