Helta, Robert K., 64, of Lake Worth, who died on April 1 .
I didn't save too many e-mails from Bob but one in my file from December is as follows:
Just sent another email re: CRA:
"This will be the second e-mail regarding my disapproval of the outrageous pay increase for the CRA Director.
At a time when our city is in financial distress cutting services and employees, how could such a irresponsible decision be made? Are we not living in the state of reality and dealing with the same issues. The CRA does not generate funds for the city , it spends them and as the past has shown ~ NOT too wisely!
I live in district 4 and feel that this city is digging itself deeper in debt with every unwise decision it makes, this pay increase just being another.
I expect to receive a reply from one of the people my tax dollars help to support.
Respectfully."
Bob
As you can see, Bob only had a few more months to live but he was still standing up for his beliefs until the end. He found me on the Internet and we became friends through e-mails and common beliefs. I had no idea how to reach him--he did not answer his phone nor his e-mails. I assumed that he just had moved from the area, fed up to the hilt. Someone tried to take-over his web sites just awhile back, posting all the crap that some do in this City.
I will miss him and am shocked to learn of his death.
