While working with Bob at GD/Lockheed, my memory of him will always be that he never met an engineering challenge that he couldn’t solve. Definitely a driven problem solver but he was also professional, courteous, kind, and funny. May God’s grace be sufficient as you process this very difficult moment. God bless you all.

Though my heart is so very heavy. I celebrate a lifetime of memories we were able to spend and share with Dad. A very special man, who loved and kept his family so close. Who went after his dreams with passion and tenacity. We are forever blessed to have had the times we did with him. I truly believe that those we love dont go away, they walk with us every single day, and our memories are forever!! I Love you Always!

I will miss my favorite uncle, my Uncle Bob. Uncle Bob always put a smile on my face whether I was visiting with him or talking with him on the phone. Uncle Bob always made me feel so loved. He would share some of his stories from many of his adventures through out his life with me and I have cherished and will continue to cherish his stories. Uncle Bob was so knowledgeable on so many subjects and continued to develop new technologies even into his retirement years. He was just an amazing and inspirational uncle who also loved hearing or telling a good joke. I love you Uncle Bob and I will miss you and your engaging smile.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
