Not sure what to say?

I met Bob when I entered high school. Always liked him as he was friendly and quite nice. Later in life got to know him a bit better and served with him on class reunion plans. Was able to pick him up at the facility where he was living and along with our friend Bunny, drove him to a class reunion. Great guy. Love to you Bob, Snookie

I am very sorry to say that I just learned of "Bobby's" passing, as I was just looking for the beautiful history of SLOBODA !
MEMORY ETERNAL...and to all those fantastic singers that gave so many tremendous joy for so many years !

I met Bob in 1981 when I joined the Apollo Chorus. He and I struck up a friendship immediately as we were born in the same year, although I was older by 5 months. He never let me forget that. We had a fantastic time when Apollo went to sing in New York. I talked to him every year on his birthday. I am so sorry I didn't know of his passing until after the memorial service when I couldn't reach him on his birthday.

So sorry to hear of Bob's transition. I knew him when I lived in Chicago. I knew of his love of singing and Apollo Chorus and we talked music as I was a choral director. He had a good sense of humor and cared a lot for his family and friends. May peace and comfort come to his family soon. You all will be in my prayers. Richard Garrin

I am so sorry to just learn of Bob’s passing. I regret being unable to pay my respects in person for someone I admired and thought so highly of. To his children and ex-wife Joan please accept my sincere condolences. May his memory be eternal. Marie Milovich Basile

My heartfelt condolences to the Anderson family on the passing of Bobby. I met Bob Anderson in the 1960’s while I was singing in the Ravanica Choir of Detroit. Countless SSF Festivals, SSF Conventions, “Barn Dances” and Fall Choir Concerts latter I got to know him as an accomplished singer, a talented leader, charismatic, humble and above all one of the nicest guys I will ever know. He will be missed.

May His Memory be Eternal.
