Jean,
I’m sad, but I wish to thank you for taking care of Bob in his time of need.
Bob was a friend and while we woked together for several years we also hunted together and yes,drank together. Many good memories.
Beth and I will do our best to attend the memorial service.
Peace,
Ron Cope

Bob never turned down a request for help when he worked for Motorola. A good one has gone to his rewards.
