I was fortunate enough to be Bob's "across the way" neighbor for too short a period of time. I work quite a few hours and it was always nice to come home and stop over for a friendly chat with him and his cigar (which, by the way, being the gentleman he was, he always kept at bay as not to offend). The one thing I will always remember and that no one ever did for me on my 57 years, was this. One day after work I stopped at the mail house and up pulled Bob who replied "I put a flag out in your honor!". Puzzled as I was, when I pulled up and looked to the left there in all its glory it was - A FLAG WITH A CAT ON IT! He remembered from one of our earliest conversations of my love for my two sister felines, Dottie and Teddie
I was touched and smiled the rest of the day. No more words. My sincere condolences to you, his blessed family.
