Bob’s Family:
I met Bob in 1981 when Bergen bought the Allen Co. in Orlando, FL.
Bob always was very ‘up front’ with me and gave me a tremendous amount of help in getting used to Bergen Brunswig. We shared some very good times together at meetings, etc.
A super nice guy and I’ll miss him.
May God Bless Bob and you, his family.

Bob could not have enjoyed more love and support through his final suffering — and we all know how much he appreciated that love and support.
We can only wish you the strength to move back beyond those months to remember him as the wonderful, loving gentlemen he was.

To the family,
I worked with Bob since 1968 back in New Jersey and then in California. The last time we spent time together was in Caracus Venezeula and we talked and talked about the good old days at Bergen. A wonderful friend who will be missed by all he came in contact with. May he be in a better place and God be with you all in this sorrowful time.

Bob was a great friend and I enjoyed working with him on our trips to Venezuela.
