Dear Friend: We have known each other since before our children were born, living across the walkway in Dreamy Hollow, we commuted to NY together from the East Norwalk train station, together we celebrated the births of our children, we laughed, and we cried together. We shared our secrets. You helped me through the most difficult times. Our children played together and we shared wonderful memories in Connecticut, New York, Philadelphia, and England. We always knew that we could talk to each other even if we hadn't talked for a year. I shall miss you dearly. Till we meet again, Good Friend. (With love from Cyndy, Debbie, Kenze, John and Garrett)

Bob was a tremendously important friend and colleague for nearly 40 years. We first shared office space at a whacky ex-offender service organization on Madison Avenue with clients stumbling in from Rikers Island, Green Haven, and Attica. There were many laughs, but some unexpectedly positive outcomes--some celebrated at the nearby refuge of the Yale Club. Later more academically focused joint work environments included Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center and Boston University. I shall truly miss his sardonic wit, knowledge of fun "watering holes", concern for New York's pro teams and the City in general. Most importantly, he was a real "pal" to me, my family, and a cadre of friends--professionally and personally. He was indeed a singular fellow. In recent years, he reveled in describing the achievements and burgeoning careers of his children. I shall miss him deeply.
