Dear Evelyn, Mark, and Joann,
I am so sorry to hear about Bob's passing. May his memory be a blessing to your family. Bob and my dad were friends my entire life. Through the years, Bob and Evelyn were close friends with my parents and they were at many of our family celebrations. Both Bob and Evelyn made sure my dad didn't spend holidays alone after my mom's passing.
Here's a picture from my dad's birthday at one of Bob's favorite restaurants, L. Woods Tap.
My sincerest condolences.
Marc
