Be Thou At Peace

My wife and I had the wonderful opportunity to serve as informal sponsors for Holly, and to get to know Rob in a variety of roles during the past 14 years. Rob was the personification of everything we define as good in a West Point man: devoted husband, loving dad to his 2 great kids, and a magnificent officer with a very direct style and a world class sense of humor! The entire Hughes family and all who know the Olsons mourn his tragic death. Holly, you know that heaven is a brighter place now with Rob there. I was so proud of all his classmates and fellow TOEP officers at the funeral--you all make me proud to have had a role in your development. LTC (Ret.) Mike Hughes, '77, former BS&L and CEP Director |
