To the Gammage family,
My heartfelt condolences to all of you, and to Bob's friends, neighbors, and anyone who had the privilege of having known him during his life. I have many fond memories of Bob while I was in high school, at 88-Cent video, and most of all at his home in which he and the rest of the Gammage family welcomed myself and all of David and Alec's friends on virtually every weekend of the year. I look back now and regret that I wasn't more grateful in the moment or forthright in my own appreciation, but it really did mean a lot to me. Bob was always accommodating, always quick to wise crack and joke, and always had a story to tell or advice to give. The patience he had with our lot of high school agitators and smart asses was commendable, but Bob more than held his own in every regard. Moreover, looking back it's easily recognizable via the memories that I have to see what a great father and husband he was, and what a great family he helped to produce. Sending my best wishes and thoughts to you all.
Sincere regards,
- Max B.
