Joan, I just heard last night about Bob passing away. I am so sorry, I wish I had know. Kevin ran into John at the funeral for that fireman who died on Monday and told him. Bob was such a nice man--you both are such nice people. I'm going to miss seeing him out on his walks, it seemed that every time the kids and I were near Kedzie at Pops or McDonalds we'd run into him. I'll come by to see you soon.
Love, John, LeAnn and kids

Unfortunately, I was out of town when Bob died. I remember Bob as a quiet, Do The Job, police officer. May he and all the deceased 8th District Alumni Rest In Peace.
