I just learned of Bob's passing and wanted to add my condolences to the legions of friends and family that have shared their thoughts and prayers with you. Through Tom I was fortunate to get to know you and Bob, and have the ability to work with Bob on many adventures. He was truly a man of wonders, with a personality and intellect that did him and you proud. He will be missed by all who had the great fortune to know him and work with him. May the fact that so many have such found memories of Bob be a comfort and blessing to you all in this time of sorrow.

Please accept my family's sympathy. Although you don't know us, we have been connected to the Hynes family for many years. My parents, Pat and Mae Kernaghan (also Irish immigrants), were neighbors and friends of Bill and Kathleen Hynes. My dad, having 4 daughters, was delighted when he could take the Hynes boys to a White Sox game. I had the pleasure of meeting Tom and Bob a few years back and they were so gracious in remembering my dad and those ballgames. May all your wonderful memories get you through the rough days.
