  1. To The Eisenman Family & Kirsten; It stunned and warmed my heart simultaneously when I saw your father’s obituary and picture yesterday. It was my honor to call him my friend and it is your honor to call him your father. We shared many opinions, stories, jokes and beers mostly @ Woody’s and I loved your Dad & my friend deeply. A US Marine and a man’s man. Kirsten, if you have the time please give me a call so I know you received my thoughts and catch up with you too. Last time I saw you, you were in the Navy right 252.903.2819 My Sincere Condolences, Richard Lea

  2. Was serving with Top Eisenman as one of his Marine Recruiters in Rocky Mount, NC when he retired. Couldn’t have asked for a better Marine to work for. His patience, guidance and leadership has been a source every since. His love for his family, Marine Corps, Tarheels, Yankees and Cowboys always created a conversation with anyone he met. To his family, Bob impacted more lives than you will ever know and will always be remembered by me and others as a mentor, leader and friend.
