My wife and I first met Bob and Jayne over 20 years ago when they first came to Maxwell AFB AL to do research on Bob's unit. We became instant friends and had many opportunities to visit with them during various trips to Maine. I last visited Bob after Jayne passed away and I took this picture of Bob and his dog on Camden Hills. We had many conversations and I last spoke with him by phone while he was staying in Florida with his son. I will miss him!

I am so sorry for the loss of another great person in our family. I will always remember the happy times I spent at Aunt Jay and Uncle Bob's house in west rockport with them and my cousins. Time goes by so fast until we go back home to heaven. Rest in peace dear uncle and love and prayers to my cousins, Bob, Susan, Billy and John. Diane

Dear Bob/Uncle Bob, Our hearts are broken because we can no longer see you, and yet we know that you are around us always from now on. At last you are free of the earthly restraints. Our fondest memories of our times spent together through the years will carry us forward. Our love and prayers always. Your sister, Ruth, and your niece, Margaret

Dear Bob ,Sue ,Bill and John , So sorry for the lose of your father... Years ago we would often see your Dad and Mom at the Cedar Crest and various other restaurants. We would stop and have enjoyable conversations with them. They were very proud of their family which was very evident in " the telling " of the family stories. Hold the memories close to your hearts . Thinking of you all.... Linda and Jim Kierstead

We watered the flowers on Aunt "Tressy's" grave yesterday and I will remember all of the family love we have shared through my life. I was saddened to think there was a big world without "Bob" in it, but how he made it a better place for all of us. I know he is with all of those who went first, but in our family memories he will be cherished by me, and his visits to Salem be remembered fondly.I am so proud of the glorious service men and women in our family! See you in time...

I am so sorry of Bob's passing. I spent many hours visiting with him not only in West Rockport, but when we were fellow State employees. I was a State Auditor and he was with the Maine Forest Service. His humor, vast knowledge and friendly personality were priceless. Rest in Peace my friend. Sincerely, Dale

Story shared: more than just a man

What can I say about my Beloved Grandfather, He was more than just a man, He was the United States hero, and mine, He was the famous man because of his direct link to smokey bear, he was the fixer of things, the great cook, the best lap to sit on, the man who knew it all about the woods, a gentle giant like the redwood trees he loved. He was my version as well as others of strength and stability. The man who loved to travel, the early bird, All I can say is he will be missed, but he is with Jesus and his loving wife my grandmother.
