Robert Samuel "Bob" Ryan

The fondest memory I had with Bob was the SLATS class in 2012. One session was canceled due to snow, subsequently I ran into Bob at the Barnes and Noble. We talked about launch vehicle control systems and among other subjects for 2 hours. He is a symbol at which every NASA engineer should thrive towards. Bob, you will be missed!

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will miss you Bob always.

I met Bob at one of the SLATS classes. He was such a nice man and had plenty of good stories to tell.

Bob exemplified everything good about people. I treasure the times I worked with him. Rest in peace.

Bob was a great engineer and teacher who loved sharing his knowledge with others in a patient and very kind way. He also understood what life is all about and now he has crossed the dark river of death to be with his Savior.

Our country has lost a truly great American and a national treasure. My first assignment that allowed our career paths to cross was in 1999. Bob was one of the most knowledgeable technical experts I ever worked woth and he was a true gentleman. I fwlt honored and humbled to call him my friend.

Uncle Robert was an amazing person. Rick, Steve you had a wonderful father.

I hope Bob's contributions to NASA structures and loads engineering knowledge will be his legacy for many generations. He was a treat to listen to and was a generous, brilliant teacher and mentor.

A very nice patient. Will be greatly missed by our office.
