Although I never had the privilege to meet Bob, I felt as if I knew him as a fellow Captain from the countless stories about him,his movies and most especially of the memorable times spent on his boat,as told to me by Donna Summit and Shelby Lincoln. My heart and condolences go out to the family and friends. A donation has been made to the American diabetes foundation in memory of Robert (Bob) Ulland on behalf of two of his most ardent admirers: Ms. Donna Summit & Ms.Shelby Lincoln. May God Bless.

Bob and I shared the same circle of friends in Winter Haven and Lakeland back in the early 70's. I found out about his success after watching a movie and seeing his name in the credits. His passing is a grim reminder of how very short life is although he seemed to have lived his to the fullest extent. I send my heartfelt sympathies to his family and friends.
