Bob is my mentor and friend. I am without words but filled with nothing but fond memories of a man who's personality was as dynamic as the day is long. My prayers go out to his family. May he rest in peace.

I am so sad to learn this news. Bob was a good man. He always had time for a kind word or just a chat.
When I met he and his wife at the Time Warner Center 5 minutes turned into an hour of laughter.
May we all remember his life as a blessing.

A long-time sincere friend, our family will miss him sorely. Just knowing he was there to always lend a hand or advice that you could count on was such a treasure to us. We will miss that cheery voice on the other end of the phone when we were not able to see him personally.

I consider myself lucky to have called Bob a friend. I'll miss our conversations about the industry, his Yankees, our dogs, and any other topic of the day. He was one of the good ones.
