Not sure what to say?

I remember (if memory serves) riding up ski slopes with my childhood best friend Janie - forget if these were rope tows, T bars or chairlifts, with the strains of Bob singing in the background: "I'll do anything for you, dear, anything, for you mean everything to me."

My sympathy to the extended Satter family. My wife was one of the secretaries in the law firm of Satter & Fleischman. It was a bustling, successful firm where everyone had to put a shoulder into their work. I would visit my then girlfriend and Bob Satter always would say hello and would always acknowledge me and say some kind thing. I'll always remember when my wife's father had a horrific accident.

I was Ritter & Satter's first full-time secretary when they first came to Hartford. What a wonderful relationship I had with them. It was because of Bob that my husband and I moved to Newington. I will always consider Bob "my friend".

As chair of the board of the Hartford Symphony I speak for all of us - thank you Bob for all you did for the "Band." We will miss you.

As Tennis Pro/Manager of Bob's beloved Hartford Tennis Club it was my priviledge to get to know Bob. Always a gentleman with kind words and an understanding of others. Loved his tennis and his tennis friends. We shall miss Bob Satter at Hartford Tennis Club.

My sympathy to the Satter family. I first met Judge Satter in his Legislative Process class, over 30 years ago. I then appeared before him after I passed the bar. He was what a lawyer and judge should be, and he will be missed.

To the family:
So very sorry to learn of Bob's passing. He was a person of integrity. He will be greatly missed.

Bob was wonderful father-in-law to our son, David. We shared our grandchildren Nate, Molly and Zoe and shared our pride in them and our love of family. He will be greatly missed.
