    To the Wade Family, I am so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I worked with Bob at the refinery and he was one of my first supervisors in the old labor gang. He was a kind, caring and gentle man whom I respected greatly. I know that to be my supervisor he must have had the patience of Jobe. He was such a good and decent man and someone I looked up to. I just past 40 years of service working for the company and I'm now a supervisor, but in a different location for the company. I've thought of him often in my career, and have tried to emulate all the good qualities and examples of treating others the way he treated me. After his retirement, I'd occasionally see him paying his respects to other dear friends and co-workers who had passed on and we would take that time to catch up.. I so wish that I could stop by tomorrow and pay my respects to him and to personally share a story or two, but I'm not in the area anymore, so please accept my heart felt condolences for your loss. Respectfully, Jeff Sands
