Bob was one of the most unique, genuine, kind & truly amazing souls to ever walk this planet. An extremely colorful yet caring character indeed, who touched the lives of those he selectively chose to engage with.
Bob’s philanthropic nature & creative ways of enriching the well-being of others (2 legged or 4) through sharing his insights and natural ability & attraction to solving challenging problems will continue to make the world a much better place due to the lasting impact he was driven to create.
I consider myself extremely fortunate & eternally grateful our paths in life crossed and we took the opportunity to embrace the common ground we shared over the decades.
His memory will be forever etched on my soul & his worldly, yet often unconventional, wisdom will continue to make a positive impact on this world in perpetuity.
Truly one of a kind. They definitely broke the mold when he was created. His presence will be missed, but his spirit will carry on.
Sending love, light and deepest condolences to Linda, Rufus James, all of the cats and his extended family.
Rest well Hobbs,
Joel “Professor Chaos” Schomaeker
