I enjoyed working with Bob and am very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Bob was the most optimistic and sociable man I've ever known. He had a great knack for saying the right thing to give people hope and cheer them up. Even with mounting health problems weighing him down he always focused on what he could do, remaining positive and independent all his life.
Always eager to learn and grow, Bob had recently entered the world of mobile app development and big data. As a team at Productive Data we worked on several mobile apps and with business analytics applications. He liked to talk about building a brighter future for the world with data and the Internet of Things, truly believing that technology would make the world a better place.
Bob inspired me to work harder to make Bob proud and to earn him the rewards I felt he deserved. Bob was always so generous, he helped people selflessly more times than I can count in the 15 years we were close friends. I will always remember Bob as a man I loved like a father.

Bob and I met at One Million Cups and talked each week about business and education and the world. He was a friendly welcoming and generous member of our community. I will miss his positive and hopeful view of the world! I am sorry for your loss.

Bob was a regular weekly member at One Million Cups Milwaukee at Ward 4. He was a friendly face to anyone new or regular at Million Cups, quick with interest and ideas about anything technological or entrepreneurial, and deeply concerned about the needs and future of society. Bob was always ready with support and ideas for others and their concerns. Bob will be missed in the One Million Cups community. Our deepest sympathy.

God Bless You Bob -
We worked together at the Brewers when you were our external IT resource helping us into the computer age.
In those days it was like a family at the Brewers and you were a memorable part of that journey.
God Bless you and your family at this time.
