ROBERT JAMES REED Jr.

Hello,

I remember a very happy Bobby Reed as one of the older kids in the neighborhood in Charlottesville. I was 10 and he was a teen and I often wondered what happened to him. It's regrettable that our local community did not embrace him and his talent, but then that is definitely our loss.

This is a bit late, but my condolences to the family.

I am so dissapointed I was unable to visit Bob before his passing, or to pay my respects at his services. My hope is that his artwork brings love and happiness to his family to help heal their sadness.

Sincere condolences to Susan and Mark. Bob was a true gentleman. I enjoyed working with him. He treated me with respect. Every time I go by a certain spot at 91 Diner I say a quick prayer for him.We didn't get to our lunch after Christmas. I remember many years of seein you three from the time Mark was a very young man. Bob was and inspiration to all his students. Miss him very much.

To Susan; Please accept our heartfelt the condolences from the Bennett family

Bob helped me through some difficult times, as teacher and a friend.
I admire his work and will continue to remember him for his generous spirit and rigor in art-making!
