Pat, I just found out about Bob this morning. Wish Norma would've told me. I would like to have paid my respects. Pat he was a great guy. Always remember his sense of humor. Did a lot of laughing together. He was a great family man. We are all a little better for knowing him. Please accept condolences from my wife and me. Again, sorry I didn't come in to pay respects. God bless
I was out of town and unable to make it to the wake or funeral. I played handball with Bob at EMH for as long as he was playing again until his knee bothered him. He was fun to play handball with and had a great sense of humor. We were both good friends of Lee Perna who also played handball with us into his mid 80's.
Bob will be badly missed. He always talked with us outside the handball court and shared stories with us of playing handball with Lee and others earlier in his life.
He was a nice guy, asked good questions, and was fun to talk with. My condolences to you.

Patsy,
I was heartsick when I heard of Bob's passing. You have been in my mind, heart and prayers since. Bob was a wonderful person with a smile that made others smile. I remember all the fun we had together and how Paul and I went to Boulder Station every night just to see you and Bob. I hope he and Paul are reliving those times right now in their eternal life. Patsy, you and Bob were a wonderful couple, meant for one another. He is in a better place and without suffering. My heart goes to you, who must carry on. Please call me if you ever need someone who has been there and understands how you feel. I will run to you and just hold you and listen. I really mean that! God Bless You.
