Bob and I grew up together and we were very special to each other. I am so glad we were able to reconnect and share memories over the last 15 years. Along with 10-15 other classmates we traveled to different places every year including Canada, the Oregon beaches,LasVegas,up and down the California coast and eastern Oregon playing golf and having fun. When he became ill we stayed in contact by phone and a few weeks before he died I traveled up to see him bringing his favorite Fettucini Alfredo for dinner. We spent five hours together just talking and laughing. He felt good and I treasure that afternoon.
