I know Bob is finally resting. We had a lot of fun competing in swimming and had great times on out of town swim meets. Bob was a great example of one who used aerobic conditioning to drive his will to succeed. He will be missed and has been missed for years.......K

Dear Ledlie Family,
I was very saddened to hear of the passing of your son, dad, grandad. I didn't know Bob very well in school, but I always knew of him. He was always there, always a part of the scene, always the gentleman, the scholar, the friend. My prayers go with you, that you might find peace knowing his ordeal is over.

I was on the swimming team with Bob he was always a nice guy and lots of fun. I lost track after high school but he seemed to have had a good life. I know I will miss him and was shocked to hear of his death
