Bob was a lifesaver for Neuhaus Education Center when we moved into our new building in 1994. He volunteered to be the "move coordinator" and did a masterful job of that. He and his cadre of retired Exxon friends were the volunteer producers of our newsletter for many years. He was Director of the Adult Literacy Program for several years, in addition to being an instructor. We owe much to Bob and will not forget him.
