Dear Family of Bob Martin,



I just received a call from Judy at Edwin Hancock Enginewering Co. that Bob had passed away. I want to express my sincerest and deepest sympathy to you. Bob and I had worked satisfactorily together at Hancock's for many years before his retirement. I retired from the company a couple of years ago and have been away traveling. Unfortunately I will be unable to pay my respects tonight or tomorrow, but my thoughts will be with you. May God comfort you at this trying time with your fond memories of Bob.
