I had the opportunity to meet Robert with my cousin Gene's wife Marie and with Aunt Florence and Catherine several times over the past few years, and I thought he was a total character. A fond memory is of him yelling at me about going on the LRR by myself down to Manhattan to do some research! He was worried I couldn't handle myself in the big city!
My family and I are saddened to hear of his death, but know he is at peace. Our sympathies to you all.
