Bob was one of the "class" guys in Chicago's die casting industry. He always had time to mentor and work with those just starting their careers. No task was either too large or small for Bob. I first met him nearly 40 years ago after I joined the staff of the Society of Die Casting Engineers, which later became the North American Die Casting Association (NADCA). Bob initially served as a Chicago Chapter president and later as
NADCA's elected chairman. He loved the industry and the fellowship of others.
When I first met Bob, he was executive vice president at Allied Metal Co. in Chicago. He and Allied's Marvin Fink were quite a duo and truly enjoyed working with local and Midwest die casters. Later, Bob moved on to DuPage Die Casting in Niles and was an outstanding business ambassador for the Dolack Family much later in his industry career.
Bob was an outstanding family man and a good friend to many along the way. May his good name endure and for be for a blessing!

Bob was a great neighbor and friend to the Kraeger family. He will be dearly missed not only by all the neighborhood but all those that he hung out with at Spunky's! He and April were so nice after my dad went to Heaven and I have fond memories of growing up in the back yard from them and delivering the Daily Herald. God Bless, Jenny Kraeger

I am so sorry that Bob passed away. He was a wonderful man. We knew each other as friends and through school. Years ago, we played basketball together at the park district. He was warm and welcoming. April, you and Bob raised a wonderful family. I am honored to have known Bob and the Alexander family!
