My deepest sympathies to the Kula family and especially daughter Donna, whom I have had the pleasure of knowing for more than twenty years. Robert and Terry's devotion to their two daughters is evident in Donna, who embodies their spirit and kindness. My thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Terry,
May the many beautiful memories bring you and your family comfort and peace.
Bob was a special person with a great sense of humor. I remember well the good time we had at Oak Brook and how much he and Sam enjoyed the buffet and the fun we had at our table. You and your family are very much in our thoughts.

I cannot relate how special Bob was to me. Not only was he the consumate sales professional, but one of the most honest and caring people I have ever known. Bob was my friend and golfing partner for 39 years, and I will never forget you. Whenever I am walking a golf course, I know he will be with me.

It was truly a pleasure for me making Terry and Bob laugh, and my wife Karen and I had many a good time with you on RCA trips or some of the dinners we did. Our deepest condolences go out to Terry and all of Bob's family. Bob will be missed.

Bob will truly be missed. He was one of the "good guys" in this world. I used to enjoy making him laugh at work and on the golf course, and I will never forget him.

The Kulas are genuine, loving people that we are gifted to have in our lives. Bob always offered a warm greeting. He will certainly be missed, but we can be grateful for his presence among us. Memory of Bob can inspire us to be better.
