Bob was a good man...one of the nicest! I enjoyed working with Bob at Grissom. We had fun working the track meets/long distance races. I spoke with Bob in May and all that he could talk about was his family. My condolences to Bob's loved ones.

Bob was always there to cheer on his daughters at swim meets. Always a happy, calm, and supportive man. I am sure he will be missed by all.

Bob was all about the kids. He was a great coach and inspired generations of runners. He had a wonderful sense of humor and he never gave up on a task he set his mind to accomplish. It was an honor to work with him at Grissom. He will be missed.

When a new neighbor moves in, your never sure who you will get. We got lucky when the Heenan's moved in. The 5 or 10 minute chats over the fence, or the simple wave, define the quality man with integrity, respect, and friendliness. Bob was more than "just a good guy". He leaves behind a legacy. He will certainly be missed.

I had the honor of teaching in the PE department with Bob for 20 years. He was a great man, teacher, friend. He loved to laugh, and enjoy life. I will miss you. Thanks for all you did for me.

Bob was one of the finest gentlemen I ever knew. It was a pleasure to have worked with him for many years at Grissom School. My wife Lori and I would help him each year at cross country meets at Turtlehead Lake.

Bob worked with me at Grissom; I hired him and was impressed with his professionalism and deep love of the kids. Rose Ann and I are deeply saddened by his passing. Our sincere sympathies to his family.

I remember Bob as a great father with a fun sense of humor. He was so supportive and proud of his daughters at swim meets. Such a nice man with a wonderful legacy...
