Bob was a very good engineer and a great person! Over the years he became a very good friend of our GE Team in the Anasco Plant in Puerto Rico. We enjoyed very much his friendship and great stories! We were lucky to share so much time with a friend like Bob!
Our feelings are with Bob's family! God bless you all!
I was blessed to have Bob in my life and be a part of his family. I always enjoyed his stories about the cruises that he took with Audrey. He really enjoyed them a lot. I will miss having breakfast on Sundays with him. You will always have a place in my heart . I will miss you. Love you.
God Bless. Carm
