Jill.....I went by to see your dad bob the other day while I was at the beach. He wasn’t there. I just wanted to say hello. I frequently saw him at the Tar Heels games. We stayed with him at his home at the beach . I’m sorry. I’m sorry I just found out. We loved him! We will miss him. I’m heartbroken. I didn’t expect this. We always “dried” our hair and went to dinner! He will be missed especially by me! Chuck Hasty 7045752112.  
I’d love to hear from you!

Jill, It was my honor and pleasure to spend a great deal of time with your father.  He was a loving, intelligent and talented man who often bragged about you and the grandsons you bestowed upon him.
He loved the Beach, Neil Diamond  and "the" Tar Heels.  
As a principal, he was an excellent leader and made it a point to treat all children fairly and made  it his goal for each one to receive the best education possible.
He is definitely an angel in Heaven even though he left his place on earth much too soon.
I will cherish and keep my fond memories of him forever in my heart.
Rest in Peace, dear Bob.

Jill,
I know how much you loved your dad.  It seemed to me that it meant even more to you knowing how much he loved and cared for your kids.  When the acute pain  is gone you will still have all your good menories.  
You have our sympathy now and our love forever.
Gary & Jill Haakenson
