Not sure what to say?

I was on the MPS board when Bob was super indent. He was always kind and professional to me as a new member. My sincerest condolences to all his family. I especially I remember a baptismal celebration at a Old Town restaurant. What a pleasure to be there! Warren Braun

I would also love to hear from Mr. Jasna's sister. [email protected]

If Mr. Jasna taught 6th grade in Appleton in the fall of 1960, I may have been one of his students. My experience in his class was amazing! I was a military dependant in town for a short while and he made me feel very welcome and special. It sounds like he had a very distinguished career. I would love to hear from one of his children. My email address is [email protected].

Mr. Jasna: You were a true educator and believer of humanity. Under your leadership at North Division (MPS) you created an environment that "color" was never an issue/concern.I greatly appreciate knowing you as a people person. With the Grace of God "Rest in Peace" A true Warrior

I was so sorry to hear of Bob´s passing. I was honored to serve as his assistant when he was Superintendent of Milwaukee Public Schools. He was a strong leader and advocate for Milwaukee´s children, families and staff during often difficult and challenging times. It was a privilege to have personally known him and was grateful for the opportunity to work with him. My sincere sympathy is extended to his family. It is such a great loss.

My sympathy goes out to Bob's entire family. I have wonderful memories , starting with his teaching, a few doors down from me at Juneau. Then his daughter was one of my star students at Fritsche. MPS was very fortunate that he spent his career there. He was always a "Kids First" person, and a positive influence on staff and coworkers. So many have benefited from knowing him. Again, my sympathies.

I was a cashier at majdecki's food store 1979 - 1983ish, and Bob was a favorite face to see...while he was stopping by to pick up milk on the way home. He was so friendly and kind. The world will miss him

My sympathy to Bob's family. Bob was a long time friend of my twin brother Jim Poplawski. They made many memories at South Division HS and thereafter.

Indeed I'm saddened to learn of Bob's passing and extend my deepest sympathy to Judy and the rest of the family. I met Bob many years ago as he and my sister Marilyn (SDHS class of '54) were friends from the neighborhood as well as school. I was 9 years old when she would take me to South's basketball games. And yes, Bob was a champion! I was so impressed with what I saw, my first choice for high school was SDHS. Little did I know that initial experience would develop into a life long...
