Please accept our sincere condolences on Mr Nesbits passing. We did not know him well, but he was a good neighbor always waved if we saw him pass by. I found his dog one day and returned her, and he was very kind and greatful. I will miss seeing him. Our best to all of his family. Mary and Barry Brame

I would like to express my condolences to the Robert E. Nesbit Sr. family. I worked for "Earl" when I first started at the Naval Weapons Station, which began June 24, 1974 and continued until he retired the summer of 1985. He may not have mentioned the name Earl, but I addressed him by that name and he would always respond to me when called. The E in his middle name led me to call him "Earl." I would put Earl as the finest Foreman/Supervisor that I had the privilege to work for at the Naval Weapons Station. Again please except my deepest sympathy. M.T.Wong MPF Supervisor, Naval Weapons Station
