It's hard to believe that a year has gone by since Bob's death. I am his cousin. Even though we didn't keep in touch, he kept in touch with my mother. Please know that he remains in my thoughts, as well as you for your loss.

Sadly, I just learned of Bobs passing. I knew Bob when I worked with him in the early 70's at Continental. A great guy who was never without a smile on his face. My Condolences.

I worked with Bob for several years at CINB and he was one of the "White Hats" ie a real great guy. Bob and family stayed with us in California after I left the bank and had a wonderful time. I am sure the Good Lord will find a place next to Vince Lombardi in Heaven. Rest in Peace my friend. Bill Tomko

My mother, siblings and cousins all send condolences to the family. I am Bob's first cousin. My dad was Leo Lukas, brother of Paul Lukas. I have not seen Bob for many years, but I have fond memories of him. My mother kept in contact with him by phone and mail. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. May he rest in peace.

Mr. Bob was my brother's best friend. I enjoyed many an afternoon
sitting in their garden, enjoying the "birds" and other critters that felt so at home with them. He was so good with animals. He took my Blue Heeler and taught her to walk with dignity! He will be missed by many!
