Please accept my sincerest condolences to your family on the passing of Robert (Bob). I met Bob through my husband Mark who always affectionately referred to him as “Bobby”.
From childhood they had a strong bond and friendship full of fun and mischief. Mark regaled me with many stories but the “Miss Fishley incident” at Elmdale was epic. Mark loved and respected Bobby very much.
When I was introduced to Bob, his first question was “Are you a Star Trek or Star Wars fan? Fortunately I answered correctly and our friendship moved at warp speed from there. Bob was a challenging conversationalist and I enjoyed visits with him.
The time I spent with Bob was short but always enlightening. I am thankful that we crossed paths. He certainly enriched my life.
I’d like to think that he and Mark are reunited, catching up on times past.
Sincerely,
Carol Newell
