Our condolences to you Liliane. Bob was special to me, being of similar height, I got to gaze at him during many 4th Class summer marching formations, and those memories have consistently stayed in my memory bank. I will keep them forever.
Blessings to you and your family.
Liliane, we are greatly saddened. He was a special person and a dear friend.
My sincere sympathy to you, Liliane, and family. Bob and I were close in our cadet years and I remember him as a very high quality friend. Our classmates were our brothers in many special ways.
