I am so very sorry for your loss. Bob was so much more than the guy who picked my packages up everyday. He became a true friend that I came to love and admire. We swapped old and new family stories, debated politics, and over the last almost ten years spent many hours laughing. I know Bob's wife and children know how much they were loved and he was so incredibly proud of them. Bob was and is a beautiful spirit and he will live on in my heart and the hearts of those he touched.
