I had the pleasure of meeting Bob about five years ago. He was the kindest and purest man I have ever met. Whenever I get back to the Boston area I always think I should swing by and see him. I did not realize Bob was ill. He has a standup guy, truly likeable in every way. I am terribly saddened to have read this email. Thanx for posting this Larry.

Maggie & I were aware that Bob was in the hospital but had no idea it was because of something so serious. Bob was such a cornerstone of this community and contributed so very much over the years. The vacuum that is left will affect us all. Bob .. may the road ahead be filled with bliss and good adventure Larry & Maggie |
