Robert D. Reichard

I remember Bob as being oh so gracious. His memory will live on in me forever.

I remember Mr. Reichard from my 4 years at Hamburg. Always a smile and a dedicated educator. May he Rest in Peace. Sincere condolences to his family.

Mr. Reichard was a huge part of my high school experience. I have so many wonderful memories of him, and Mrs. Reichard too, in marching band and HHS band. I couldn´t imagine my high school experience without him. He led us with love and pushed us to do great things. Where other schools would call band members "band geeks", HHS welcomed and celebrated ALL students and had one of the largest bands and marching bands because of him. That says something Sending out prayers and love to his family...

Mr. Reichard was my music teacher and band director. I was a trombone player, like him, and I'm certain me and my fellow trombone players aged him during our tenure with him. But he taught us hooligans the importance of music and showed us why passion and raw talent isn't enough. Mastery of anything meaningful in life comes from "pride, discipline, commitment, respect." It's a life lesson well learned. Thank you and God Speed.

I am so saddened. Bob and Marian were our neighbors for over 50 years, Bob was our sons´ band instructor, they were friends and I have many memories, especially the band trip to Hershey Park. May he rest in peace with Marian.
