Not sure what to say?

Impressive credits for him. Rest easy Robert

I SAW HIM PLAY BUBBA WEISSBURGER THE LAWYER ON THE LATE 80'S TV SERIES "FRANKS PLACE" THE SERIES WAS INTERESTING ALTHOUGH IT LASTED ONLY ONE SEASON. R.I.P.

Too soon. Too soon.

Geez... going on with my life -as I'm sure you would have wanted me to do- is no mean feat :-( but I'll get there in the end and then I can rest easy again. Just a little more help from you! Your wifey who misses yourguidance xoxox

Mr. Harper was brilliant as Judge Irwin Hawes in the 2001-02 TV show Philly - a sad comment on judges but high praise to him as an actor. Rest in peace, Mr. Harper. Markus Buchart Winnipeg, Canada Fan

He was an interesting guy and very well spoken. I am currently watching Gilmore Girls where he appeared. He was a student of my husband, Thomas Van Laan, at Rutgers University where they became friends and we would get together, along with Sascha, whenever we could. Loved his New York accent! Sadly, Tom is also gone. The picture is at the Old Globe Theater in San Diego.

Gawd, how I miss you :(

Hi Robert, Mr. Harper, Sascha's Mr.

Although I never had the pleasure of meeting you in person I shared the joy of the many trips and Sundays in the park that you and your lady, Sascha, enjoyed.

By way of emails, or chats Sascha kept me apprised of your adventures and Sunday pannekoeken breakfasts, brunches, and bicycle rides.

I was there too (vicariously) for your hospital visits and consultations with your doctors and the ups and downs of that trying time....
