My condolences to the Harwood family. I worked with Bob over the past ten years and always found him to be thoughtful kind gentleman. You and Bob were gypped as he was taken way too soon.

I had the privilege of working with Bob at numerous conferences, but my favorite memories are the unexpected moments of running into him at random regional airports all across the country. Our conversations had a way of making the journey feel a little shorter. You'll be missed my friend.

For some years, Bob and I worked trade shows together across the country. For all of his good qualities, I was most impressed with his workout ethic. Early ever morning, he would be in the hotel gym before going to the show and being on his feet all day. We shared some good times.

For more than ten years and across several companies, it was an honor to work alongside you. Your methodical approach to every challenge brought clarity, precision, and calm confidence to our team-no matter how complex the project or unfamiliar the environment. Through each transition and new opportunity, you showed unwavering professionalism, integrity, and kindness. I´ll forever cherish the lessons you taught me and the way you turned every obstacle into a manageable step.

My deepest condolences to Nancy, Kyle, and Maddy. May the memories of Bob´s warmth and guidance bring you comfort and peace during this difficult time.

With heartfelt sympathy, Stuart

Dear Nancy, Kyle and Maddy,
We are so sorry for your loss. Although it has been many years since our families were together, the years of travel hockey together will never be forgotten. Bob showed players and parents alike what elegant kindness and steadfastness looks like. Rest in peace.

With love, The Kurtz´s

Bob was a loving man who adored his family, friends, and life. He will be sorely missed by many. He enjoyed a beautiful, amazing family in Nancy, Kyle and Maddy.
I have so many memories of times with Bob laughing uncontrollably. I can picture him smiling in his short, gold gym shorts hanging out in the freezing rinks.
What a devastating loss......

I feel beyond lucky to have had an Uncle Bob in my life and he has made such an impact on how I perceive fatherhood and being the best husband. Not many people can live up to be Uncle Bob.

He was always known as the "candy man" for me growing up. He could cheer you up in an instant, from one of witty comments or his endless stock of new treats. I can´t think of anyone that I know that had such a jovial spirit- anytime I was near him! He was reliably funny. A personality that was so genuine that it made you so happy to be around him. I still hear his infectious laugh cackling in my mind and really will miss getting one of his iconic bear hugs until we meet again.

It´s hard to think of a father that loved and supported his family more than Uncle Bob. He was the biggest cheerleader to Kyle and Maddy and a rock to one hell of a woman, Nancy. A family that I truly thank God every day for being a part of my life. Miss you Uncle Bob
