Not sure what to say?

I'm so sorry to learn that Bob has passed away. I worked with him for about 10 years during the 90s in the Prevention Center. He was a highly creative researcher who helped me launch my own career. My heart goes out to his sons and entire family.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
