Could have chosen "friend" as a category but Bob was so much more, a mentor who got our family into the wonderful world of birds.

I had the good fortune to be Bob´s roommate throughout my college career. He was a great friend, always helpful, smart and full of life. Bob and I played soccer together and years later via long distance maintained our contact on our respective birthdays. There is a heaven and Bob is now among the blessed. Condolences to his family and loved ones.

I am shocked and saddened by this. I saw him & his late wife give a presentation years ago at our library on bird species of Illinois. I send my heartfelt condolences to his family and to all who loved him. Rest in eternal peace, Bob.

After 8 years of grade school, playing soccer together in college, saving our family home from fire, being the Best Man at my wedding and spending years of family fun together, I have to say 'goodbye' to one of oldest and closest friends.
