I am so sorry to hear of Bobs passing. I worked with Bob for a number of years in the Telecom trade and echo Paul Busas sentiments. There was none better than Bob if you needed support, help or guidance with a technical issue. His talent and diligence enabled many a business to get back up and into operation and many a tech to be able to move on and wrap up.

I was also fortunate to have been deployed to the field with Bob as we served together with the UASF/602nd TCS.

Bob will always be remembered as a terrific person. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.

Worked with Bob for many years. His was the voice you wanted to hear on the other end of the line when calling in for support. His knowledge and relentless drive enabled me to get home in time and enjoy my family countless times. He never had a bad word to say about anyone and had a great dry wit and sense of humor. He was among the best in the business yet as humble as they come..
