A dear and trusted friend, a remarkable colleague and leader, and a very loving husband. Every conversation yielded a witty saying, an impromptu joke, and ultimately a series of laughs. It was just his nature, his God-given gift and desire to make others smile. Bob’s presence continually lit the room, having an uncanny ability to lift spirits, and invoke hope. He was gracious to a fault, purposefully driven to excel, capable in more ways than I can list, and approachable by anyone, anytime. He was a mentor to so very many, personally and professionally, always willing to share his knowledge or to simply just listen. He leaves behind innumerable friends, because, well, that is what he was to anyone blessed to know him. He deeply loves his wife Fran, and spoke of her in most conversations, showing the purity of that love in his messaging of her to others. He also cherished the friendships he created, always looking to help, attend, or honor those who have fallen, or are in need. Bob offered a unique perspective and friendship that I will always cherish and reflect on. He is wrapped in prayer, revered at the highest level, and missed beyond words. May God comfort and hold you tightly forever my good friend. You are in our hearts….Always.
