Bobby's presence at WMUH made things feel right. More often than not he was there to help out in assistance, and he always let you know that if you needed help where he would be.
WMUH lost a good friend. RIP and Farewell.

I can't imagine WMUH without Bob. He was an important part of the "behind the scenes" staff. He surely will be missed by all who knew him.

Bobby will be missed. It's hard to imagine WMUH without his derring-do and know-how.

I new Bobby briefly, I working with him last year at the fund drive. I found out quickly that he was the Go To guy if I had any questions about radio or the station, it seamed he was there almost every time I stopped bye. You will be in my prayers. May the god Lord welcome you with open arms.

Bobby left a legacy through WMUH Allentown, through his example of proper radio ethics; teaching DJ's the values and responsibilities required to work with Muhlenberg 91.7 FM.
Maybe one day we can catch up to his radio transmissions still traveling through time and space; in hopes that his spirit will continue to inspire new generations of DJs.

Chasing the radio waves. Thanks Bobby for years of friendship and volunteerism. You are already missed by this radio family and students from near and far.

Bobby accomplished much over the years on the air at WMUH and kept the airwaves flowing with just about any type of music.

Many years ago when my daughter Miranda was still a toddler she accidentally locked herself in the office of WMUH while we were visiting.
I could see her through the window and tried to get her to turn the knob and unlock the door. It was a pathetic sight as she made a few unsuccessful tries and then collapsed in tears! What to do? Someone suggested I call Bobby since he lived close by and had keys. He put down whatever he was doing and walked over to help extract my little girl. I'll never forget his "rescue" effort. It is funny now when I think back and also sweet. Thanks again Bobby and farewell.

Bobby was one of the beacon signals of WMUH, his radio family will miss him. He may have signed-off, but his transmissions travel on.
