In a letter received at the SMART Transportation Division headquarters, Rob Zanath’s family wrote:
“To all the SMART Union Members,
“We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude for all of the love and support you have shown our family during this very difficult time. Words cannot express how grateful we are for your kindness and compassion over the past few months since Rob’s passing. Rob was blessed to have been a part of such a caring and giving community for the past 24 years. Your overwhelming generosity of monetary donations given to our family at this year’s regional meetings was most appreciated. We will continue to pray for all of you and ask you to keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we begin to move forward and be at peace as we cherish the memory of a loving, caring husband, father, and son and are comforted by the fact that Rob now resides in the peace and happiness of heaven.
“The Family of Robert Zanath”
