Not sure what to say?

I met Bobby in 1986 at Bain. We moved in the same office space together and spent many after work activities in Boston. When I moved out of my apt and had only a temporary bedroom in a condemned house in Cambridge (Bobby made lots of jokes about it) I crashed a number of nights at his place downtown. My wife and I visited him in Burlington in 1989. I consider him one of the closest friends I have.

Was a close and wonderful friend. Spent many wonderful hours during and after Bain tenure in the late 80s. RIP my brother...

Bob was such a loving spirit. He'll be forever in our hearts. With love and condolences.

So sorry for your loss. Bob was a great guy and practitioner.

Oh Bob what a dynamic spirit and personality you were!!! Getting to know you, your sence of humor and desire to remain present for your family will forever stay a precious memory. I considered you my friend and being a caregiver for you for over a year I learned so much, not only about the Parkinsons journey and the many challenges, but how important your determination played in your survival. Also, you kicked my butt in Trivia every time! You were so sharp! I learned about your life daily...

Dr Bob was a great guy! He gave us many laughs when I worked at the Brien Center. I know how much he will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Bob was a light to the world, his family and his friends. I worked with Bob at the Brien Center and he felt deeply for his patients and their struggles. He moved through a long, challenging illness with grace and a sense of humor. Bob, we love you and will miss you. Liza, Max and Isaac are in our hearts.

It was a privilege to train alongside Bob. I find myself thinking about his smile and laugh often in the last few days. My heart is with Liza and their 2 sons.
