I first met Bob when I joined HU-21 Squadron as a new pilot in 1958. Throughout the years he served as an example of how to be a Naval Officer, how to be a good person, and as my Mentor, nudging me gently along the right course and ensuring I was ready for the next step. More importantly he was a very dear friend, fond of stories about our service days, and some very old jokes. I will miss those days at the Aviation Museum. and our cherished coffee breaks. He was a bright spot in every day you spent with him. My condolences to Valerie, Michael and the entire family. I too will miss him.
Rest easy Bob, your watch is over, your duty done. I will see you again in the Delta.
