Milo, our deepest condolences to you and your family. May your dad rest is peace and may you find comfort in the memories of him and the support of family and friends.
Judy and Family,
I am so very sorry to hear about Bob's passing. He was a very kind and welcoming man. My deepest sympathies to all of you. There is a new bass in Heaven.
It was my honor and pleasure to know and sing with Bob. I appreciated his sense of humor and his efforts on behalf of the Harbor City Harmonizers. I'll miss him.

We met Bob and Helen 1967 when we worked together at Radiation. We got along well and were friends since then. He was a quite person but alway ready with a joke to brighten our day. Our family will miss him. Rest In peace Bob.
