Brother Bob was my chemistry teacher at Chaminade High School. He was an excellent teacher. His caring and encouragement led me to a 35 year career in chemical engineering. I connected with him and Bro. Grundish several years ago, and was able to tell him that he was the reason I chose a chemical career. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to let him know how he impacted life. RIP Bro. Bob!

There is often someone who we encounter on our journey - a teacher, a friend, a mentor - who revealed the limitless possibilities of life. That person who encouraged us to pursue them, taught us to be resilient, and provided a safe harbor when the journey was stormy. Brother Bob was that person in my life, and to many others. His legacy lives in all of us.
