Not sure what to say?

If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?
-Albert Einstein

Bob Pease possessed a ferocious intellect and the desk organization to match. The world lost one of the great analog minds when Mr. Pease passed through the pearly gates.

I will miss Bob. I sat 10 feet from him in mid 70's at NSC, and talked to him often. Saw him at Boston seminars as well. Loved his 3D spatial prototyping methods. A great scientist.

It was with great sadness I heard of Bob's passing. To his family and friends, please accept my condolences.

I can hear Bob now.........
"Whats all this sympathy stuff ?"

Bob,
I am but one of many who have purchased your books, and designed with your devices. Don't shave the beard, otherwise I will never be able to find you. See ya in about 20....

I remember his favourite articles and books on both simple and complex electronic problems. And meeting with you in Warsaw, Poland a few years ago.

Rest in peace.

Really sad, I loved his column and books.
His replies via e-mail where short but with a few words he could clarify a problem and the solution. He will be missed here in Europe also.

Hard to believe one of the GIANTS of Analog has gone. He was an inspiration to all. Will miss his column, it was always a joy to read.

I knew Bob from working at National and I am positive they never let the Fire Marshall anywhere near his cube. He was truly a one of a kind. Rest in peace, you will never be forgotten.
