I was simply crestfallen to learn of my Wabash fraternity brother's passing via a thoughtful text from daughter Erinne. Bob was always such a stand-up guy...dependable and caring about others. And he was modest; I had no idea about all of his architectural accomplishments. We stayed in touch via annual Christmas greetings, but should have made a point to actually meet up. I hope fond family memories will sustain Janice, Erinne and other loved ones as they deal with their sorrow. Bob certainly embodied the Wabash motto...he was Some Little Giant.
