Robert Mondavi

There have been many fine tributes to Bob already, I'll only share a page of quotes from him. There are some gems here:

and share a quote of my own from my Grandmother:

"If you can't say anything nice, say nothing"

and dedicate it to Julia Flynn Siler who, on learning of Bob's passing, had this touching gem:

"The family had made preparations for this day for a long time. Whether his passing heals the family, I don't know,"

I think its times like this that people reveal their true selves. At least she managed not to slip a promo in for her book....
