Be Thou At Peace

| When I was young Bob and Cathy captured my imagination -- they showed me what a great love and relationship could be. Bob's passing is such a devastating loss for everyone who loved him -- he was the definition of a born, natural leader who inspired men (and Cathy) to follow him for all the best reasons. My personal nickname for him was "Battle Bob" after the comic book character because, with that strong lantern jaw, Bob just looked like a soldier, a soldier who inspired confidence, fidelity and love. In a company of great men Bob was among the very best, a truly magnificent human being. Save a place at the table for me buddy. |
