Bob,
You are one of the “great ones”. I will miss you always. Thank you for accepting me into the family, without prejudice. Your kindness, and thoughfulness, will be remembered as just of one of the many reasons that so many people loved you. Watch over Deb, and the family, and maybe somehow, let us know you’re with us. You will forever be in my heart. I love you.
