I was so glad to be a next-door neighbor of Bob's for many years. He was a kind, thoughtful person and not once, through all those years, did we ever have harsh words or a disagreement. I am very sorry to read of his passing. I hope that his family finds comfort and strength during this sad time.

Dear Carole and Family,

I am deeply saddened to hear of Bob's death. We went back to our days at NYU with memories shared over countless lunch dates during 30 years of collaborative practice in Milford, MA.

We will all miss a caring man, a wonderful endodontist and a good friend.
