"Bob worked with my husband Ron Helmick at the Plainfield IN Post Office. He and Sharon were very close to us and our children. We all have very fond memories of spending time with them both in Plainfield and Washington. I wish I could have kept in better contact with him after Ron passed. I was getting ready to send his annual birthday card. I will miss him dearly. I am so sorry for your loss. RIP Bob."
