Sincere sympathy to Bob’s family.  Bob was my middle shift lead for Easton Coach and drove for the Pa  college of health sciences. one of the nicest guys you could ever meet.  he would give you the shirt off his back and if he didn’t have one, would find one for you.  He will be greatly missed by our drivers, faculty members and students.           RIP Bob  Miss ya already.
