Robert A. Bartkowiak

Was fortunate to have Prof Bartkowiak for the foundational engineering courses at PSU-LV (as did my father). One of the most competent engineering lecturers I had at either the Lehigh Valley or University Park Penn State campuses (even if he did stick to his overhead projector), and a reliable advocate for his engineering students. There were many of us that would have been lost without him.

My condolences to his wife, children, and family.

I had the privilege of being one of Professor Bartkowiak’s students at Penn State when he taught engineering courses that included Statics, Dynamics, and Strength of Materials. I am grateful for all of the fundamental engineering knowledge that he provided as part of my undergraduate education. My thoughts are with his family during this difficult time.

My sincere condolences to the family. I always remember Bob as an incredibly kind person. Rest In Peace.

I had the pleasure of working with Bob when he was a volunteer at the Da Vinci Science Center. He was such an asset to the organization and was a tremendous human! RIP Bob.

I was an usher at St. Paul's and had the pleasure seeing you every Sunday. You were cordial and well mannered and our Church will not be the same. May our Heavenly Father and our Holy Savior bring you in the midst of all the angels and saints and may you see God face to face. Rest in eternal peace. Your fellow parishioner. Chuck Toth
