Bob was an extraordinary man who devoted himself to guiding and mentoring young adolescent boys—I was fortunate to be one of them. To me, he was the father I didn’t have, offering steady guidance, encouragement, and a sense of belonging during some of the most formative years of my life. He shaped more lives than he likely ever realized.
I only wish I hadn’t lost touch with him and that we’d had the chance to rekindle the laughter and stories we once shared. It wasn’t meant to be in this lifetime, but I’ll carry those memories with me always—and hold onto the hope that our paths will cross again in the next.
