Passing of NARP Treasurer Robert W. Glover

Wednesday, August 27, 2008

It is with great sadness and deep sense of loss that I report the death of our Treasurer and good friend Robert W. “Bob” Glover yesterday morning after a brief illness.

Bob underwent cancer surgery several months ago. He was recovering well but subsequently developed blood clots and then contracted pneumonia late last week. His passing was peaceful, with family and friends at his bedside.

At Bob’s request, there will be no service.

Bob was a NARP member almost from its inception. He joined the Board in 1977 and became Secretary in 1988. He served in this position until 2004 when he became Treasurer.

He served NARP and our cause faithfully and tirelessly all the way to the last days of his life. We will greatly miss his energy, his wit, his insights, his knowledge and his enormous dedication to our cause.

On behalf of NARP, I extend our sincerest condolences to his sister Linda, his family, his colleagues and many friends.

--George L. Chilson
NARP President
