I had the pleasure of working for Bob at Michigan Fruit. I was only 20 & probably the worst secretary he ever had. Fortunately for him I was only there a few months. I remember him fondly for his kindness & seemingly endless
patience & encouragement. He spoke often & with pride of his family. My
sympathy for your loss.
Our love and prayers are with you, Alice and family. Bob was such a kind and accomplished person! I have many fond memories of babysitting for you at your home on South Riviera Drive in Stevensville. You were all at our wedding forty years ago. May your love and good memories comfort you and bring peace of mind.
God bless, Deb (Pauler) & Rick Fantini
