Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and memory of a true community leader, Mr. Robert ``Bob'' Aichele, of Lancaster, who passed away at the age of 92 on Tuesday. Bob was a friend to everyone and would always greet you with a signature warm smile. He spent his life in service to others, in service to the Nation as a seaman first class in the United States Navy, a veteran of World War II and the Korean War. He also served his community, serving as the president of many boards and associations, and was a Manor Township supervisor for more than 25 years. When he was not serving the community he loved, Bob was with his family. He is survived by his loving wife of 67 years, Mary Anne, five children, 15 grandchildren, and one great grandchild. Madam Speaker, my prayers and condolences are with his family, with those who grieve, and all those who had the opportunity to know Bob. I know I always appreciated his friendship and I will cherish the time that we had together. While we mourn the loss of Bob, we must also give thanks for the life that he lived and the time that we had to spend with him. ____________________”
