Rosemary and I met Bob and Diana in 1966 at Fort Benning. Surprisingly, we found that we were assigned to the same battalion (1/9 FA) in Germany. That was the beginning of a lifelong friendship. We will always cherish our times together, particularly that first tour in Kitzingen. Bob was the consummate soldier, scholar, story teller and friend. The world and our lives are lessened with his passing. Earl and Rosemary Finley.
