March 31, 2024 at 7:16 amI am saddened to hear of the passing of a friend and fellow worker at Fairfield. As a gage setter, I had the privilege of seeing Bob daily. He was a gentle man and seemed to have a very positive outlook on life in general. My condolences to Jim (whom I also worked with) and the entire family.
