Bob shared an office and lunch with me for my first 14 years of teaching in the Science Department at Langley Secondary School. I valued him as both mentor and friend, always caring and courteous; an absolute gentleman! He is still memorialized at Langley Secondary on their annual "Tie Day" when "Osborne's Law" is celebrated: "No Ties after Easter!"
