Bob was the consummate teacher. All of us who had the privilege of being his students during our SCVN training benefited from his knowledge, enthusiasm and the challenge of trying to do our best to earn his praise. In fact, just trying to keep up with him was challenge enough! Jan Dowling SCVN Class of 2006
