Dear Sharon Lynn and kids;

I worked with Bob and knew him as a funny, fun, creative and talented man who always looked on the light side. He was a very gifted man and I am lucky to have known him. I was also lucky enough to talk to Bob just last week and am so sorry he died so young. I hope you will take comfort in knowing he was loved by many who worked together with him over the years.



Best wishes
