Robert Sayler

I was Bob's first partner in the second round of the first year Ames competition and was one of the early fans of both his intelligence and his humanity

Professor Sayler, I was very sad to hear of your passing. After the first class I took with you, I went on to take every one of your classes offered at UVA Law. You and Professor Shadel armed me with the practical tools necessary to serve my clients as a public defender and I use these tools every single day. Prior to taking your class, I had no idea you were a literal legal legend, and, despite your stature, you still taught us with the utmost respect and humility, which says a lot about you...

My heartfelt condolences to the entire Sayler family. Bob had a brilliant mind, an extraordinary sense of humor and a kind heart. It was a privilege to work with and, know him. Karla (Balourdos) Ramage

I've worked for him only for few days, he had sense of humor, appreciation whatever simple thing done to him. I was glad he hasn't suffer and gone peacefully. RIP Mr. Bob, you will be missed.

So sorry for your loss, Marty. Enjoyed working with him.

Marty I we are sorry for your loss. We were shocked when we saw the announcement in the paper this evening. Bob was a welcome presence and a piece of home when ever he came in to see us. It was always a break to be able to talk about Kansas City, real bar-b-que and mid-west values. First Len Dawson, now Bob. What a loss for Kansas City and Charlottesville. We shall miss those conversations. Thank you for sharing him with us. Tracey and I will keep you and your family in our hearts...
