Barb and Family, I am so saddened to learn of Bob's death. We became friends when we worked together at Mayview and remained friends for over 40 years. Bob was one of a kind! I'm so sorry that we weren't able to get together more often. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Bob's departure is a loss for many. His depth of knowledge and keen sense of humor endeared him to us. We shall always remember his joking manner. We miss him greatly and our sympathy abounds for Barbara and the whole Thomas clan. We can only hope that he brings joy into the next world and with God's blessings keeps watch over his family's well being.

Captain Spaulding ... we will miss you. As a charter member of the Graham Spanier Drinking and Tailgate Team, we will sorely miss you. Your wit and pithy statements kept us googling. Rest in piece. Lynn & Jim
