My husband Paul Sherbine lost many a good friend that day, and Bob Kennedy was one of his closest. They worked, laughed and had lunch together for 15 years. It's hard to fathom that kind of loss. My heart goes out to the entire Kennedy family.

I never knew Robert C. Kennedy. I live in Winston-Salem, NC, and five or six years ago, while walking through a city park here (Shaffner Park), I came upon a park bench that carries a small memorial plaque in Mr. Kennedy's memory. It took me five years, but today I shared an essay that remembers Mr. Kennedy and others who were lost on September 11, 2001. The essay is available through my WordPress website and can be accessed at: http://tinyurl.com/Robert-C-Kennedy Thank you very much, and God bless Mr. Kennedy and his family.

I did not know Mr. Kennedy personally. However, I think of him this day each year. In 2002, I was honored as a recipient of an award in his name, the Robert C. Kennedy Appreciation Award through the SILA organization. I'm so sorry for his loss and pray his family is well and feel God's peace. After reading some of the posts on this memorial wall, I know he made a true and lasting impact to those who were blessed to have known him.

I didn't know Bob, I just wanted to share with his family and friends that Bob was with me on my motorcycle on 9/11/13. I rode in the 2 Million Bikers to DC Tribute Ride, and the organizers printed name tags of 9/11 victims for some of us to wear on the ride. I was given the tag for Robert Clinton Kennedy, and he rode with myself and at least 880,000 other riders from Fort Washington Md to Washington DC and back. Best wishes to all his friends and family, Glenn McAfee

Still in our hearts and thoughts. Aways and forever. We miss you. XOX

Bob, think about you and your wonderful sense of humor. Be at peace.

Dear Kennedy family, I just wanted you to know that I was thinking of you all yesterday and have thought about you and Mr. Kennedy many many times over the years. I remember going to visit my dad at 1166 for lunch and sitting in the cafeteria with my dad, Bob, Charlie and John (I think it was John), he was always so nice to me and interested in what I was doing at my job etc. Just wanted you to know I was thinking of you and keep you in my prayers.

Thinking of you today Cathy and the entire Kennedy family.

Bob, we are still missing you at Marsh. There just aren't people like you around anymore. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your family on this anniversary and always. I know you are in a better place but that doesn't make it any easier.

I still think of you often - as 9/11 approaches or at random times when we're working on an issue. I'll never forget how helpful you were and how kind. We still miss you.

Bob - It's been 9 long years since you left us and we all miss you very much. Some day, there will be justice done for this tragedy.

We remember and we celebrate your life today and every day. We love you Dad.

God bless you and your loved ones.

I miss you Bob and wish your family well. You will forever be in my thoughts.

I am sorry I never got to meet the very kind and knowledgeable person on the other end of my phone line, Bob Kennedy. He was good at his job and always willing to help. You are missed.

I just found out today that Mr Kennedy ws among those that lost there lives on on 90/11/01. I had the privilege of working with Mr. Kennedy in 1984-85 at 1221 Ave of the Americas. I remember him always being friendly and helpful. He was so proud of his children. I was fresh out of college and didn't really know what I was doing, but he made my job so much more pleasant with his wonderful attitude. My sincerest sympathies to his family. May he rest in peace.

I am thinking of you today, Bob. Bless you.

Bob was very upbeat and friendly to work with. He always laughed and made you feel every question you ask him was important no matter how small. He will always be missed.

Bob was one of the first Marsh colleagues our group interacted with when we joined Marsh and was the first I thought of when we heard the terrible news on September 11, 2001. He was a kind and helpful man and we miss working with him. My thoughts and prayers are with Bob's family on this anniversary and always.

Bob had all the answers. When I did not know where else to go, I could always call Bob for some more direction. Recently I was speaking with a colleague wondering where to get an answer. Bob was the person we thought of. He is missed for many reasons. For me, he was kind and helpful. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

Bob Kennedy's family is a true testament of his love for family and life. He is smiling down from heaven with pride (perhaps with a joke or two - probably laughing it up with my dad!). May you continue to honor this special man's life and follow in his legacy always. May God Bless you and keep you in his embrace always. Sending much love and comfort to you, Caryn Rasweiler Wiley

Always a gentleman, wonderful to work with, a resource for so many of us. I admired him and enjoyed working with him.

I had the privelege of being Bob's secretary for nine memorable years. He was someone I could talk to and share my feelings with, knowing he would give me good advice, especially on work related issues. He never failed to ask “what’s up” when I walked in his office, showing he had my best interests at heart. I remember his laugh, his jokes and his smile which would brighten up a cloudy day. The department we worked in was like a family and he was an integral part of that family. Bob Kennedy was more than a colleague, he was a dear friend and father figure, a kind and caring individual. He was a dedicated father who was close to his family. He loved them so much and NEVER failed to talk about them. When I'd ask about his family he would always smile. I will carry these fond memories of Bob with me always, as I’m sure all his friends will. We miss him DEARLY. Maureen, Cathy, Meredith, Rob & Bryan, may you find our words to be a source of strength and comfort, knowing you are in our thoughts.

How can you summarize the life of a man as special as Bob Kennedy? He was everything to the people in his life. He was a wonderful, loving husband, a caring father, a compassionate, patient son and the best friend anyone could have. He is our hero. Bob Kennedy loved life and people. He made the most out of every day, never held a grudge, said what he felt and allowed those he loved to do the same. He was kind and gentle. He made life special and fun. He delighted in his daughters. He made us feel special and loved. He was a model husband for over 32 years. He loved to make his wife happy and enjoyed their times together. They lived simply and made the most of their time, whether it was sitting at the pool on vacation or having coffee and tea on the deck, they approached everything as a team. He had a great sense of humor and loved to laugh. He could find humor in the same joke over and over. He was a great joke teller. We would sit around the table and he would start with the “stories”. We would be out at some place where you are supposed to be serious, and something would strike him as funny. He would not be able to control his laughter and his red face. We had so much fun. No one was ever further than a phone call. We told each other to put on a specific TV channel, or we called from the store when something silly happened. We shared in every joy and sorrow as a true family. Acknowledging that our differences made us stronger, there was nothing that we could not handle. If Dad said it was going to be okay, you knew it was. Nothing made him prouder then our family. He would tell our mother, “Teach them to walk, and then teach them to walk away.” The fact that we always came walking back to share our good times as well as bad is a true testament to the two of them as parents. It was the six of us, always together to help and listen. When we found the men we chose to spend our lives with, the similarities to Dad were striking. Rob is the funny one, with the patience of a saint who never takes life too seriously. Bryan is the planner. He cares about all things and will take care of any situation you need him to. They enjoyed countless weekends of golfing, grilling steaks, and then sitting down with a cigar with a cup of Dad’s homemade Starbucks coffee. They are his sons as much as we are his daughters. We all wish we could have those weekends back. Our heartbreak is as immeasurable as our love for him. We miss his presence, we miss his humor and we miss his friendship. However, we can never miss his love, as it was an unending stream that will carry us through our heartache. We have faith that he is watching over us and we will see him again. We are so fortunate to have had such a wonderful man in our lives. We will go forward and continue to make him proud and to honor his life. We love you Dad!! Maureen, Cathy, Meredith, Bryan and Rob

My contact with Bob over the last eleven years was through the approval of Insurer or Placement codes. I finally got to meet Bob in person at our Detroit office at a Surplus Lines Seminar. It was nice to put a face with the voice that I had dealt with for so long. My heart goes out to his family. I will always think of him when I see pictures of the Twin Towers or hear reference to 911. Everytime I work on placement numbers, I think of him. He will be in our hearts forever. To his family, may the pain ease over time, and may only happy memories remain. From a Colleague in Grand Rapids, MI.

I miss his laugh, I miss our conversations, I miss the stories about his family and Otto the pug dog. Bob Kennedy was the BEST and I am grateful that I had a chance to know and work with him. My thoughts and prayers go out to Bob's family. Bob may be gone but he will live in my heart forever!
