Robert H. VanAlstyne

Over my 39 year career coaching baseball at Saratoga Catholic I had the privilege of having Bobby on many of my games. First and foremost he was a great guy, very good umpire and loved the game. He really enjoyed the kids and coaches. Bobby was fair and always gave his best effort. I will miss my old friend. Rest in Peace Bobby as you touched many lives. Love ya Pal

We did several games together and he was a good practical mentor. I remember on 2 saturdays in mid July 2019 it was very hot and humid and we had to take a couple of rest and water breaks. He was great to work with . God Bless Bob and his family.

I´ll never forget sitting out in the middle of the night watching the northern lights with Bob while hunting in the Arctic for Caribou.

Had a lot of great memories and fun umpiring baseball with Bob for over 40 years.
