Bob Durling enabled us through the erudition he wore so lightly and shared so generously to remember our deepest history and the heart's unquenchable longings. Sincere condolences for the loss of his irreplaceable humanity to his wife Nancy, his family, and all whose lives were touched and enlarged by him.

Here was a translator of the heart for all of us; sharp, sweet, in humor, and so welcome.

Bob always said the class with Charles Singleton changed his life. Our classes with Bob changed our lives. He taught us things we have thought about and used every day since. His ears must have been ever ringing as his name was always invoked in our home, as it will continue to be.
