David W Lee wrote a sympathy message

“I grew up with Bob, from 6-7 years age and up through most of high school. Our parents lived a block or so apart. The attached photo was taken by my dad, John Lee, at Christmas in 1953. He also made Cgristmas moves of neighborhood families over a period of about ten years. I can send digital copies for those interested. I was ten months younger, but we did a lot of things together, with other kids in the hood. That included collecting salamanders and playing sports. Great memories.”
