Dear Marjory,
You and Bob shared a special time frame in my life.  Bob and I were in GHS class of 1955.  Always glad to see you at class reunions.  And you and I worked together at PPG.  I really would like to hear from you.  My e-mail address is:       wer2grahams@gmail.com

Faith, Family and Friends will help you through this difficult time.
You have my deepest sympathy.

Marj - my deepest condolences to you, your son and your grandchildren. 

As a Lightnin' player I had the great pleasure and honor to be part of the legacy built by Bob in Charlotte. It is with tremendous gratitude that I remember our time in Charlotte and that Bob made possible.  My prayers are with you and your family during this time of loss,  Bob will be missed by us all.

God bless you,

Miguel Avila

Marj and Michael we are sorry for your loss.

Marj - it has been much too long since Hunter Lane and the Merry Oaks, Morningside Drive neighborhoods.

Marge,

We are so sorry for your loss.  I have good memories of working with Bob and everyone else at PNUCOR when I was working for Cuno, Inc.  In addition, we remember the hospitality that you and Bob extended to us at parties during the holiday season.

My fond memories of Basketball at Clemson and staying with you on my first weekend visit.  I lost Mike in May of 2019, and I know what it is to lose someone that you love.  
Please let me know when you plan to have a get together.  I am just below you in Lancaster, SC.
God bless and thank you for making my memories of my first visit to Clemson something I have never forgotten.  Mike entered the hospital about two weeks after the last Basketball reunion at Clemson.  I would like to think that there is a Bohonak, Benson, Burnisky, Krajack team in heaven looking for a game.

Marge and Mike - we will always have wonderful and loving thoughts of Bob and our association with him through soccer.  
His love of you both always was his first priority and what a success his life was with the many accomplishments he had.
Our memories of Bob are that he loved the sport of soccer and the Carolina Lighting professional team he brought to Charlotte.
What an outstanding person he truly was and may he rest in peace.


Bob’s locker at the Y was next to mine for years. He was such a gentleman.

Marge and family,
Our condolences and sympathy to you, Mike and the family.  You will be in our thoughts and prayers in the days ahead.
We think often of the 35 years working with PNUCOR, Bob, you and the Sales Team. The sales meetings, the great times we enjoyed, the trips to Mrytle Beach and socials at the Benson home.  
Sue and Wayne Woodcock

Marge and family,

The Suarez Family is saddened to hear the news of Bob’s passing. Bob did so much for the City of Charlotte before anyone knew of this City. The chance he took with the Carolina Lightnin’ was visionary, and it made a huge impact not only in Charlotte but to our family because of the opportunity it presented to Tony.  Bob will always have a special place in our hearts. 

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Ana

Many fine memories of Tryclan Drive and on to Westinghouse - what an experience.  . Pnucor launched me on a career path that continues to today . I will fondly recall some of the great memories from that era . blessings to you and Mike. 

My condolences to the Benson family.  Having worked for Bob, I had the utmost respect for him and his success in business.  All our best to Marj.

Marj .  I’m so sad.  You and Bob made such a great team. I’ m proud that I was a part of your journey. Love and prayers.   



We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mr.  Benson.  I worked for him at Pnucor for many years.  You and your family are in our hearts and prayers.
