I am very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I worked with him for many years at Bose. He was a very nice guy. He was always happy and smiling a joy to work with.

Julie, My deepest sympathy for you and your family. I haven't seen Bob since he was very young when we made our cross country trips or the Wheelers made the same trips to California each year to see the Fosters. May he finally be in peace and pain free. Love Patty Foster Davis

Uncle Bob always had a quick wit or anecdote for any situation ~ already miss that sharp quick sense of humor and big heart. You touched many and your gift of wit should have spanned a couple more decades down here. Obviously That gift was needed elsewhere. xo

It is with shock and sadness that I am reading of Bobby's passing. My deepest condolences and sympathy to his wife, children and sisters. I had just enquired about Bobby with my sister 3 days ago and asked her if she had his phone number. Today she sent me not a phone number but an obituary. May God rest his soul. See you on the other side my friend.
