Bob had been a partner in the law firm of Casner & Edwards for over 30 years, retiring in 2017 from his practice of professional liability and real estate-related litigation. He grew up in Newark and Wilmington, Delaware, son of the late Abraham and Dorothy Kutner.

In later years, he and Lenna purchased a lakeside summer home in Plymouth and enjoyed the more serene lifestyle of boating and entertaining friends. Bob continuously amazed and inspired family, friends and colleagues with his resilience and determination to live life fully in the face of 28 years of medical challenges.
