I remember Rob from St. Brendan´s and again St. Ignatius, what a ball player he was! Seems like yesterday.

My condolences to Rob´s family. I just saw his obituary at the Olympic Club and sadly it turned out to be my elementary classmate and math partner. God bless his soul. Prayers sent.

My deepest condolences to Rob's family. I had the pleasure of seeing Rob in March of 2024 at our St. Brendan´s Class of 1970 gathering. Over the past few years, we had the opportunity to renew our friendship, and I was reminded of what a truly wonderful man he was. We had a chance to share our careers in the wine & spirits industry. I will cherish those memories and keep you all in my thoughts during this difficult time.

I coached Rob on the 8th grade Basketball team at St Brendans. He was as fine as young man as I have ever met.
My condolences to his family. God bless you Rob.

The great left hander from St. Brendan's. I remember Rob all the way back to CYO games in grammar school and after that in high school. Wonderful memories. It's always too soon, particularly for the good ones. God speed Rob. You're the best.

Rob's upbeat demeanor didn't change across the many decades of knowing him - from SI to Cal to the occasional SI Class of 1974 reunion - it was a joy to chat him up and share a laugh.

Rest in Peace, Golden Bear.
