We are very shocked and saddened to hear of Bob´s death via this website. There are so many wonderful memories of happy days in Germany, when Bob was in the Army. He was a very amusing, interesting and kind man. Dear Jennie and Beth, we hope that your own memories will bring you some comfort in the difficult days ahead. We will write a more personal letter very soon. With our deepest sympathy from `across the pond´. Lots of love Bob and Linda xx

So many memories of Bob, he was such a good guy! When he did Santa at the NALC Christmas party. He has helped so many people throughout the years with postal union issues. So sorry for your loss, he will be missed.
