So sorry, Jean. I played in a quartet with Bob just a few summers ago. He'll be greatly missed at Play Week. May he rest in peace.

Bob was a wonderful chamber music player. He was always kind and enthusiastic with his group members at Play Week. Always up for trying a more unusual piece of music and leading the way with his strong violinistic skills. All our sympathy to his family.

My sympathy to his family. I met Bob playing chamber music at a summer workshop, and he was such a great person to hang out with and talk, even outside of rehearsal. He taught me to say 'hello' in Hungarian, and I know I'll never say it as well as him. May his memory be a blessing.

I met Bob when he was serving on the nominating committee one year around 2011. He and Jean were a lively couple, and I so appreciated their thoughtful participation in the work of the church. Bob had a beautiful musical talent. I shall miss him.
