    I remember the Meyerson family from the days they resided in the Bennettville community in Aitkin County in the 1930’s – 1940’s. I recall Robert as a friendly, gentle person whom I last recall visiting with at one of the Bennettville school reunions.

    Uncle Bob was such a kind and gentle man. He loved life and he loved people. He always had a twinkle in his eye. He’s now at his reward with his many siblings…..and Jesus!
