Not sure what to say?

Bob was a fantastic teacher. Whenever any new student was brave enough to ask how he lost his fingers, he came up with a different story each time. When I was at Cornish, I invited every teacher in my department to come see me in my first professional show in West Seattle... Bob was the only teacher who showed. Meant to the world to me and my family and its a photo that I will always cherish. My boyfriend (who I'm still with!) got excused from the program at Cornish, and Bob fought for him....

I find myself thinking about Bob a lot these days during the pandemic.

I miss him.

He was a master teacher for four years at our overnight Camp Demigod to children, ages 8-22. This is one of many photos from his time with us with his teaching partner Morgan Grody.

We can never replace him and I am grateful that he shared his knowledge and wisdom with us.

Thinking about you today Bob! Remembering your kindness and beautiful soul.

We worked on many projects together both in theater and film for over 30 years. I coordinated Bob on several projects. He never let me down and his work was always first class. Whenever I needed a "tough guy" Bob was always there to fill the shoes. Rest in peace old friend.

Bob,
I will never forget the training we did together at Cornish. You were tireless and tremendously supportive with our preparation for our Recommendation fight. Even though it has been a great while since I've seen you, your expertise, encouragement and joy you brought to the work will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace my friend.

Bob was great mentor and I will always be thankful for having known him. Rest in peace, my friend.

Miss you, Bob! Can't believe we'll never go skiing or hiking or just hang out again. You'll be in the mountains with me always! My deep condolences to the family and friends. Viktoria
