Robert James "Bob" Tudor

First met Bob at Rensselaer. First week he handmade an intense pair of speakers and secured the organist position at the fieldhouse for hockey games. He played keyboard and I played guitar more than studying and we both left RPI. Tried to locate him over the years and now I know why I could not- he obviously was a very busy man, a very loved man who ultimately followed his passion for music and experienced great success. I still listen to our tapes made on that old 8-track cassette...

bob was a great musician and a genius at electronics. a real gentleman and cool guy! i was honored to know him briefly.

I met Bob 16 years ago and saw him weather many personal tragedies, always with honesty and his unique humor. He weathered the storms and enjoyed the quiet calms, the greatest of which was that harbor known as Lisa.
He had such a wide and diverse group of friends because he could disagree with you strongly, on deep issues such as politics or religion, but make it clear that he still respected you. He would often, as he called it, 'stir the pot' by bringing up a controversial subject...

I had the pleasure and honor of being a friend of Bob's as well as working with him. My heartfelt condolences to all of his family and friends.

I have used many of the products that Bob designed, I am so sorry for your loss. I am sure he was an amazing person from all that I have read - though I never had the pleasure of meeting him. My deepest sympathy and prayers for your family. - Rob Iacono, Rhode Island

It´s very sad, that the very best have to die too young. But I believe that there´s a place in another dimension, where we´ll meet all beloved members of our families and all our friends again. Dear Lisa, I didn´t know Bob personally, but he was a dear friend of my sons Matthias and Andreas. My thoughts and sincere compassion are with you. May a lot of angels watch over you.
