DeleteRobert was a wonderful man! My heart breaks for you, Kathleen, and your family! I will miss his sense of humor and his spontaneous piano playing!
DeleteBob Lang is without a doubt the kindest person I have met. Though I only had the pleasure of working with for 3 years, he had a profound impact in my life, as well as the lives of my co-workers. His positive outlook on life, his sense of humor, and his complete devotion to his family are just a few of his many qualities. My deepest condolences and sympathy to Kathleen, his daughters, and his grandchildren (of whom he was especially proud of.) Bob was an extraordinary man, and I am blessed to have known him.
DeleteWe are sorry for your loss. From what i knew of him, he seemed to have been a really great person and made a difference in the lives of everyone he was around. May your memories of him and your life together become your treasures. Shirley & Ron Lankert
