I am one of Bob's co-workers from BCBSA. It is impossible to comprehend the tragedy that you have suffered. I hope that you can find solace in your family and your faith.

It was very heartbreaking to hear the news. Even though I haven't seen him in quite some time, I have always remembered his kindess. My heartfelt sympathy is sent out to Gail, Daniel and Rebecca. May God guide them through the difficult days to come and may faith help reassure them that Bob is now at peace awaiting his reunion with them.
