    Bob was a very kind and helpful person. I feel honored to have known him for so many years as a co-worker. He was very good at his job. Mark, thank you for taking excellent care of Bob. It showed how much you cared for each other when you and Bob visited us here at Ameren several months ago. May God continue to bless you Mark, and comfort you during this time.

    I met Bob through his nephew, Chad, when we attended a Cardinal game. I had a great time.
    I saw him a few times after that; the last time probably about 10 years ago.
    He always was cordial and easy to speak with.
    The world was a better place with Bob in it.

    I just learned of Bob’s passing. My sincere condolences to his Partner and his entire family. I would see him every morning in the cafeteria here at work having his pancakes. We would speak briefly and I will always remember what a kind and pleasant person he was. Keeping you all close to my heart in prayer.
