Betty and Family, my sincere condolences for your loss. God blessed Bob with a great sense of humor and we were fortunate enough to have known him and laugh with him. He will be sorely missed.
My warm thoughts & heartfelt prayers to Betty & the family! I worked with Bob many years ago at GE. Bob was a very special guy – one who was great in the work he did & one who was great in how he dealt with people. We had the best time working together & Bob always had a smile to share! I’m so glad we made a point of staying in touch over the years. I’ll really miss Bob but he’s enjoying his eternal reward with God in heaven. I’ll look forward to seeing him again if I’m lucky enough to get to heaven too.
