“Bob, you are one of the best things that happened to me at GM. When we first met I knew our friendship would last a lifetime. That lifetime was way too short. I'm so glad we were able to share many stories about the Tigers and Red Wings. All those scorebooks you have from the Tigers game. You will be missed my friend. When I look at the sky and see the brightest star, I know it will be you. RIP Sue”
