Dear Susan, Ann and I are very saddened to learn of Rob´s passing. Very unfortunately, I lost touch with Rob once I retired from IOL in 2002. But I do recall with fondness the many years we worked together
in the law department. I believe we started with the company in the same year, 1977. Rob was an excellent lawyer, taking over from Graham Batt as the competition law guru; I cannot think of anyone who was more respected, from among his clients and colleagues alike. I also recall that he did significant volunteer work in the community, I think it was at the Fred Victor mission, but I may be mistaken. In any event, he wore his heart on his sleeve and he approached his work diligently and with a sense of humour.
