Bob and Betty hosted me the night before my 1965 interview for the start of my faculty career. They were always so friendly and cordial, and Bob was a fine colleague who developed his wonderful career directing the first Sea Grant.

I'm so glad to have known Bob Ragotzkie through his wife, Betty, and my mother, Phillida. I especially remember visiting Betty and Bob while mom and I were vacationing in Door County at the same time. Betty served us fresh lake trout which Bob had caught that day in Lake Michigan. What a treat to eat the fresh trout and visit with friends at the beautiful cabin on the lake.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
