Robert Kenneth Merrill

West Point, 1963

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Christine Walker Polli on May 28, 2020:

I've known Bob for as along as I can remember. He was the Best Man for my dad, Ralph "Tex" Walker G2, at his wedding. He's always been Uncle Bob to me. He once told me that he went AWOL to come to my dad's funeral. He was a teddy bear of a guy, always smiling and laughing. Bob had a listening ear for me during a particularly difficult time, staying up and talking with me until the wee hours of the morning. I know he had my back. I'm heartbroken at his passing but I know he is with my dad now. They will be having a grand time together. Love you, Uncle Bob!! Chrissie
