Obituary
Send FlowersHoping to Be a Novelist
This was the dream for Robert Mace: retire by 50, buy a little place on Nantucket and write novels to rival those of John Grisham, the Mississippi novel-writing lawyer. Mr. Mace, 43, also a lawyer, had collected his share of stories over the years, first as a lawyer with the National Labor Relations Board and most recently as a labor lawyer for Cantor Fitzgerald. The tales he would use to regale his family and friends at dinner parties and golf outings. He especially loved to tell friends about the various circuit courts in which he had a chance to argue cases, making sure to point out that he planned to visit them all before retiring.
"He was in his glory being an attorney," recalled Mr. Mace's brother, Ken. "Even his girlfriends over the years knew he was married to the law. Nothing could beat it for him." Except a Philadelphia Eagles game. But only if his childhood team was winning.
Guest Book
I worked with Mr. Mace as I called him a long time ago at Winston & Strawn. He was always a nice guy. I was an IT tech and you didn't mind fielding a call from him because he was always cool. It was sometime after the attacks that I found out he was in the towers but I remembered him instantly.

Rob and I graduated from Boyertown in 1976 and played baseball together. He was a great guy and teammate. Back in 1975, we were in a baseball tournament and had a day off. The team went to Dorney Park. I was terrified of roller coasters and got through the day without riding on one. As we waited for our bus to head back, we had time for a "team" ride on the roller coaster. I made all the excuses for not going on, but ended up in a seat with Rob. Despite my panicking, almost falling out of...

I am a classmate of Rob's at George Washington Law School, Class of 1984. We will celebrate our 30th anniversary of our law school graduation with a reunion in June 2014. Rob was a great guy. We were housmates our last year of law school in Arlington, Virginia. Rob was very smart - he was on the GW Law Review. We lost contact with each other over the years but when I heard that he was in the Towers , I was devastated. I wear a US flag lapel pin everyday at work since then in his honor. Rob...

I didn't know Robert personally but I rode in his honor this year in the America's 9/11 Foundation Ride. I kept his memorial card on the windscreen of my motorcycle right next to the person my wife was riding for. To kick off the ride a ceremony was held in Somerset Penn. just outside Shanksville and I was asked to share my thoughts on remembrance with those present. I would like to share those thoughts with you as well but first and foremost I would like tell you that I get it. That I...

Rob, you were one of the first people I called that morning, and every 9/11 I listen for your name when they read them alphabetically. You were a good roommate and friend, and I silently greet you whenever I walk past your old apartment building on 92 Street. Rest in Peace.
