Halanah Kraft, Keystone Young Marines A PROUD MARINE who was my friend for the past 8 years--he has touched my life and many others!! HE WILL TRULY BE MISSED!!! My condolences to Jaye, Geoffrey, Josh, Eva and to his extended family. Mary Seibert, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Three weeks ago my dad died. He was a Marine. At the last minute, I thought to see if a Marine could come out to pay respects to him. I called and got Bullet Bob. The weather was horrible, it was last minute (like 2 hours before) and didn't expect anyone to be able to come. Bob said he would be there. He drove all the way from Mt. Lebanon to Homestead for my dad, because he said "He was a Marine." That was the first and last time I met Bob, but he touched our family's lives that day. The heavens now have another Marine guarding the streets. Semper Fi Sir. Semper Fi. Lois Kobrys, South Park, Pennsylvania No words can describe my shock upon hearing of Bullet's death. He will be missed, but I will continue to honor his memory. If the last lines of the Marines Hymn are believed then Heavens streets will certainly be guarded by Bullet.
