    I am so very, very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Although we had not seen each other in many years, I have so many good (and really comical) memories from our late high school days. Borge, you are and will continue to be sincerely missed. All prayers for God's love and comfort are with the loved ones you leave behind.Terry
