Can a word or two say it all?

Inspiring

"... In a life tragically cut short, Bob managed to inspire all those who crossed his path.  On May 22, 2017 each of the Quincy middle schools held activities. 'Bits of Good for Bob' in Bob's memory that extended kindness to all with a mission to doing good for others. ..." 

From a citation from Mayor Thomas Koch, of Quincy, MA

Cherished

"...  We are all blessed to have had a man like Bob in our lives.  I know he will forever live in each of our hearts through the lessons he taught us.  He taught us it is best to be kind and to laugh.  Hard work and responsibility truly pay off.  And when all else fails, bananas can fix anything. "

Coach Marisa Forrester at the Quincy/North Quincy Swimming and Diving Banquet

Fairness, Dedication, Respect

The Eastern Massachusetts Interscholastic Swim Coaches Academy honored Bob with their most prestigious award, which is given to those with the qualities of fairness, dedication and respect for High School Swimming. 

Courageous

A week before Bob passed away, he amazed all by summoning strength enough to go home one last time.  While at home, he welcomed and reached out to as many people as he could.

His calming words were "Laugh.  Don't cry, just laugh."

Love

A romantic until the end, Bob waited until his wife Carla left his side for a long overdue meal, before he passed away.  

When she returned, there was a single teardrop on the side where she was sitting.

Good

Perhaps there is one word that says all that can be said ...

Good

Please do a little bit of good in honor of this truly Good person.
