I recently found out about the death of Dr. Robert Suppa. Please accept my deepest sympathy, he will be greatly missed by everyone that he had the opportunity to connect with through his work as an adviser, friend, mentor and teacher. I knew Bob first when he was my adviser and teacher at Lehigh University and later I worked with him when he was a supervisor and teacher in the Allentown School District (ASD). He was a true advocate for all the students that he worked with through out his...

Bob was my childhood friend, a group of us always ran around together, at that time the group was the West End Boys. He will certainly be missed by many.

Bobby Suppa was my friend since we were 12. He was an original. Such a sensitive and compassionate soul - wrapped in a curmudgeon's armor sometimes. There will be a hole in the crowd around around the table at the Warren Legion this year. Goodnight, my brother. I'll miss you.

Bob was one of the most generous and caring individuals I have ever met. I considered him a close friend, first meeting him during the years he was a professor at Lehigh University. He was a fierce supporter of both teachers and students. Many times I would think things weren't going well with a student in my classroom, and Bob always had an idea that worked. As time went by, he went his direction and I went mine. I will always remember his humor, swearing, and good times that we spent together.

Dr. Suppa you will be truely missed! As my teacher in middle school you changed my life by letting me know its ok to be who you are and to always be your self. He taught me to stay in school no matter how much i hated it because it will pay off in the future. I just want to thank you dr. suppa and you will be truly missed!!! You inspired me to be who i am today ! thank you!

To Dr. Suppa's family

i am sorry for you lost and i will remmber as a good teacher that help me out when i want to dieruff high school we will miss you very much and we will think about you all the time

I can't express how much I will miss Bob. Working with him at Raub for only four years was not long enough. He taught me many things that I will never forget, and inspired me in ways that I can not describe. I will miss his laugh, his rubberbands, his Seabreeze, his wicked sense of humor and his smile. He has truly touched the world and left his mark on all of his friends, colleagues and students.
Thanks Bob, I love you!

I taught across the hall from Dr. Suppa when we taught at Dieruff High School. He loved every single student he had and he loved teaching. His wit and sense of humor made him so much fun to be around. He stood up for what he believed in and I always admired him for all of that. He touched so many lives and I am so saddened that the world has to go on without him.
