I have wonderful memories of Robert Cronquist as the conductor of the Lakeside Symphony. His commentaries on the works performed were both educational and (with his wry sense of humor) entertaining. I miss his physical presence at the symphony performances, but am comforted that his legacy remains a presence at Lakeside.

Bob was a kind, gentle, humourous and impish conductor who had a twinkle in his eye. I enjoyed him and am so thankful I had the pleasure of performing under him, He was such an exceptional person. I am so sorry for your loss.
