My deepest sympathy and condolences to all the family. I knew Robert as "Uncle Bob" as a child in Bethlehem. Our families were neighbors in the 1960s. My family moved when I was still young. However we tried to keep in-touch for the next couple decades. To this day, I still remember "Uncle Bob", his smile, his outgoing good nature, and his kindness. R.I.P.

Cid, Catherine and family,
What a blessing it was to spend time with you all last May at Ellen's wedding. Families are so important and yet time seems to separate us unduly. I was sadden to receive the news of Bob's passing and I wanted to, in some small way, send my prayers and blessings to you. Love, Jeffrey, Jay and Warren

My sincere sympathy to Cid and the family. I am so honored to have worked with Bob, who was a true gentleman, gifted architect, and all around wonderful human being. He fostered a culture of thoughtfulness, respect, and humor at the firm that I've never forgotten and will always seek to create wherever my career takes me.

My condolences to Bob's family on the passing of a "truly great" human being.

I had the pleasure of serving on several boards with Bob, especially LVIP. He was not only one of the top architects in his profession, he was also a major architect in the economic development of the Lehigh Valley as we know it today. His efforts for preservation of open spaces will be his legacy for generations to come.
