Ken Low and Sharon Flanagan left a message on September 11, 2018:
Ken and I send our deepest sympathies to Bob's family. We worked with Bob at Strawbridge and Clothier and we were able to enjoy Bob and Bob's company in the post-S&C years. I remember when we celebrated his 40th anniversary at the store. There was to be a big meeting (maybe a stockholders' meeting?) the next day and Bob was summoned to the auditorium because of a problem only he could fix. The stage curtains were closed where we were all waiting for him. When he came in, the curtains were raised and everyone yelled "surprise!". I think he truly was! Plus he like the drama of it!!
