Knowing cousin Bobby since he was 12, a lifetime of summer memories grew from Song Lake visits, first with Aunt Irene and Uncle Bob Vanderpool, then with the Thompson clan,, a growing family., finally with the aged patriarch. Always a teacher of local cultures and archeology, family stories, fishing and boating,, sports fitness, and knowledgeable in almost any subject. He was never mean,, always helpful, never spoke till sure of your full attention. What a guy, I loved being his cousin.. Jean Irene Livingston Thomas
