There is no one that I admired and respected more.
Bob was not only my father-in-law, but my friend. Bob was also a mentor and amazing grandfather to my children, Jordan and Jennifer. I can only hope that I can come close to successfully modeling his same behaviors for my grandchildren, because I know first hand the positive lasting effect that has had on Jordan and Jennifer. I know he meant the world to my wife Cheryl and I can see his same positive qualities in her every single day; I am sure he touched many peoples lives that way.
Bob had an explicit quality that everyone I knew was drawn toward and he unselfishly gave his love and support to all of them I will miss him dearly.
