My best memory of my dad is the day I met him. He was a friend of my grandfather. I went to visit and went down to basement to say hi. He was sitting at grandpas bar talking and in uniform. He was around a lot afterwards. When he came over in his dress blues he had my heart.

My favorite memories of Uncle Tom took place when I moved to California in 1987. I was without transportation and he had two cars so he lent me his second car so I would have transportation., Then a couple of years later in 1990 when I got married he paid for my second reception that was held in California. It was so very generous of him. My prayers are with you Bob, Bonnie, Tom and Jim, Love Robin.
