I only knew him as "Bob", but I sure recognize that wonderful and warm smile.

Dear Joy,
You were truly Bob's beloved. Both of you embraced us all and to all left footprints on our heart. Humor and love are the hallmark of Bob along with his devotion to the essence of Judaism. You both have made our world a richer place. We shall remember Bob always with a smile and miss him greatly. Phyllis & Mort Lessans

Dear Barry, Kamal, Joy, Sam, Sunitha, Alan, Brian, Douglas and Danny,
Hugs from Fred and Sue

Words cant describe what an unusually exceptional person my grandfather was during the course of his life. He always went out of his way to make sure I including the rest of my family was accounted for and was the kindest, most sincere man I have ever gotten the pleasure of knowing.

I am very fortunate to have shared such a special relationship with my grandfather and have been able to cherish many amazing memories I was able to spend with him such as attending Friday night...

I'm so sad to hear of Bob's passing...He was a real mensch! He was always happy, friendly, and very charitable, esp. to the JFGH. My condolences to the family, especially to Bob's son, Barry, who I know from the Hebrew Academy of Greater Washington.
