Not sure what to say?

My sympathy to Bob's family and friends. I am so very sorry. I was a student of Bob's back in the mid-2000s. Hands down one of the best acting (and life!) teachers in the business. White hot smart, funny, and what a presence and dancer. He really taught me how to break down the script word for word in a way that made perfect sense. The light bulb went on. I felt so privileged to have the experience of being his student and for the entire Noho experience during that time. Magical...

Hard to believe another year has gone by! He is still missed by so many. He was actually a very funny guy.... I miss his great laugh! Paula

I was an Evans Scholar at the UW with Bob and he recruited me to the cheerleading squad and helped me to become captain after his term was up. He was always a good friend at the UW and I followed his career a little bit especially since his wife was friends with my first wife marsha kademian. Anyway, my son is headed out to LA at the end of the summer and I was going to have him look Bob up. Now I learn of his passing. I agree with all the comments I have read about him and am sorry my...

Bob was my favorite acting teacher when I lived in Los Angeles from 2005-2013. He was smart, funny, but also tough. He made me a better actor and was always encouraging me to stick with it. Somehow, I only learned of his passing today (5/9/2019). I'm sad that he is no longer with us, but I am grateful for having known and learned from him.

Bob was one of my favorite people on this planet.

Bob was so encouraging when I was a young performer. He was so talented and the sweetest guy in the world. Safe journey, dear friend.

This was a man who lived out his dream until the final curtain....in our early years together (1969-1975) he was always dedicated to his craft, whether it was dancing, acting, or singing. He was always striving to be the best he could possibly be. Even with a back problem from his cheerleading days at UW Madison... We have wonderful life long friends from those early days of The Brothers snd Sisters and Today's Children with Doc Severinsen.
My sincere condolences to Karen, the...

We did not know Bob personally, but heard many positive things about him from our daughter Annabeth. May he rest in peace!

We celebrated you at The Magnolia Grille yesterday, Bob, dining in your honor like we did so many Sunday afternoons in the heyday of the NoHo Arts Center. We told stories, comforted each other and the waitresses who adored you, remembering your talents, wit, charm, work ethic, friendship, and sparkle in your smile. You're here always in our hearts, memories, and your body of work that plays on in movies, TV shows & commercials you blessed with your gifts. We love that the 1st responders...
