Charlie Goppert wrote a sympathy message

“Hello Bob and Lynne and the family of Dorothy. I am so sorry for your loss. I lived across from the Montesano’s as a youngster on Dawes Ave. Bob was a very close friend. We often played together at his house so his Mom was always there for us. Again I only just now saw that she has passed and I am so sorry for your loss. Charlie (Chuck) and Nea Goppert.”
