Our prayers are with you and the rest of the family during this mourning period. Please know Bob would want you to make the mourning brief and celebrate his life with love of each other, laughter, joy and a zest for happiness that he tried to share with all those he knew. Share stories of him; it is sure to bring smiles to your faces and to those around you...exactly what gave him the most joy and what he lived for (to see your smiles).

I worked with Bob at Dupont for several years, not long in the overall scheme of things but we managed to stay close ever since. Before he moved to Maryland we would get together for dinners, and later after he moved we would see him in Ocean City MD. He was always a great friend who loved his family and friends greatly. We will miss his smile and of course his emails, and the visits. May time and great memories carry you through this time. With Love, The Sprigmans

I've only know Bob for a short time. He purchased a TL from me and I have never met a nicer person to deal with. He came back a few times for service and we would chat about life and family. This earth has loss a special human being. He will be missed. To his family and friends, my sincere condolences.
God Bless.
