Ileana Grams-Moog on Bob Moog

Ileana Grams-Moog wrote a touching post on Caring Bridge. The following is only a short excerpt, so do take the time out to read the full post.

"It has been almost exactly two and a half years since Bob's death, and over a year since my last entry. I had no idea that people were still visiting this site and posting tributes to Bob until my stepdaughter Michelle, the director of the Bob Moog Foundation, told me so. My chronic fatigue generally keeps me from using the internet.

I am so touched and grateful to know how much Bob meant and continues to mean to so many people. For my daughter Miranda and me he was as close to perfect a (step)father and husband as is humanly possible. Those qualities that we loved clearly affected the thousands of you who had only a brief encounter with him, but that made such a deep impression on you that the memory of it is still alive. It is traditional in Judaism to say, after mentioning the name of someone who is no longer alive, 'May his (or her) memory be for a blessing.' Bob's memory is a blessing for all of us who knew him, whether for a few moments or for years."
