Not sure what to say?

He never looked down on people, always smiled and tried to help everyone be better. It was just his nature. I miss having lunch with him to solve the world problems.

I had the good fortune of working with Bob at Rentown and I consider him a touchstone. -A true leader who had a true vision for finding the best in everyone. I am forever indebted for his help in business, life and how to lead with grace. I will do my best to spend my career using the values he so unselfishly taught me.

--Oh yeah, Bob, thank you for teaching me how to shake a mans hand. --I was a boy when I met Bob and Left him a man.

I played tennis with Bob the day before he died. I wish I had been able to get to know him better, but he was a good tennis player and more importantly a great sportsman and a really good person.

Dear Hedyth & Family,

The very sad news of Bob's sudden passing reached me in Florida via the internet and was such a shock. He was a mensch of the first order, with a wonderful wife and family. My sincerest sympathy goes out to you.
Fondly,
Lynn Talit

This is quite a shock as I just saw Bob a few weeks ago. I've known Bob for many years. He was my neighbor at Golf Acres. He always had a smile and a laugh whenever we ran into each other. He will surely be missed. Too young too soon to be taken away.

My wife Shelley and I send our condolences to the family in during this difficult time. We lost a great guy.

Dear Fishman Family
I'm so sorry to hear about Mr. Fishman's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

Hedyth, Monica and Dan - Kevin and I are so so so sorry about Bobby. We always had wonderful conversations when we saw each other. "Words" don't make it easier but FRIENDS do and I can only send my sympathies to all of you. hugs and healing IRENE

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Fishman family during this time of sorrow. John, Renee and Kyle Bishop.
