Dear Carolyn, Bob, Scott, Fred and family,
What a terrible loss for all of you. Can't imagine the pain you are feeling. May your special memories bring you some peace in the days ahead.
We remember when you first moved here. The boys were so young, you were living out on Riley Wills Rd. Definitely in the country. A bit scary at nite but they loved it, especially at Halloween.
We remember too, the big beautiful house you built. Perfect for your growing boys. Lots of...

Bob was a great person. As a friend of his brother Fred, my fondest memories of Bob centered around the annual Derr brother’s pilgrimage to Ohio State. Too many laughs to count and many memorable moments.
When I think of Bob, what I remember most is not necessarily the conversations we had, but more so, how welcome he made me feel.

Bob was a teaching attending I'll never forget. He was always so approachable and friendly. He managed to make me smile even during some of the most chaotic shifts at Children's Hospital when I was a resident many years ago. I rarely look through obituaries, but I was drawn to this today. I'm so sad to hear of his passing, and I hope that it brings you some comfort to know how lucky we all were to have him in our life. Thank you, Dr. Bob, for all of your lessons.
