I miss you, Uncle Bob! You were one of a kind.

I first met "Uncle Bob" when I was a freshman at Bishop Neumann HS in 1959. I'll never forget that image of him going around selling tickets to the Neumann-Southern football game in his unique hat. I also remember Bob when I was Principal of St. John Neumann High School. What an enthusiastic and catchy spirit he had!
"Uncle Bob," may you live forever! You certainly lived for so many years in the hearts of us Neumann students, alumni and friends. May God welcome you totally into the...

RIP Uncle Bob! He was one of the many colorful characters that made Bishop/Saint John Neumann such a great place! I will always remember him fondly.

Sorry to hear of Bob's passing and we will keep in our prayers. He was a good friend when we were at St. John Neumann High School.

TO THE FAMILY OF MR. SENSKE: TO READ THIS BRINGS BACK MY PAST. I AM A 66 NEUMANN GRAD. EVERYONE I KNEW RESPECTED THIS MAN.BE PROUD! HE WILL LIVE ON!

My condolences to the Senske family. I worked with Bob at Neumann in the alumni office. He often talked about his family dinners etc. especially his niece who would help him pick out his clothes. Whenever he came to work he always was dressed so nice and I would comment on his put together outfits. We had up and down days, but on the good days we had fun and some serious talks, I do miss him. Walt Belovitz and I will be handling the donations that we receive in his memory. Thank you for...

Uncle Bob was truly unique and will be deeply missed.
Love,
Niece Joanne and family
