We met Bob & Geri in 1975 when they moved across the street from us in Springfield, Va. They quickly became the best neighbors ever and we so enjoyed so many incredibly wonderful times together as we grew our families and became family together in Springfield.
We will never forget Bob's gentle and kind way with everyone and his love for Geri and all of his children. A special, special man in so many ways. We are the better for knowing you Bob Daly .

I think I see a twinkle in Bob's eye in his picture. We did not know Bob well but were so sorry to hear of his passing We very much enjoyed knowing Bob and Geri through our little cocktail group. It makes me realize how fleeting life really is. Sending prayers for Bob and Geri. With love, Jean and Don Prevatte

While I have not seen Bob in well over 20 years, I still have very fond memories of him. I knew Bob for perhaps 2-3 years and enjoyed his company, appreciated his trust, and observed his incredible connection with his family. He will be missed and my thoughts are with your entire family during this difficult time.
Mike
