I first met Rob when I was in college and he was dating my friend Pam. The three of us had a lot of fun together over the years. Rob and I played a lot of cribbage and backgammon, he taught me how to ride a motorcycle, and of course we raised a few glasses. I was in their wedding and Pam was in mine. Rob had such a great sense of humor and everyone enjoyed his company. Rest in peace my friend.

Rob is the resson I joined the Meriden camera club. He, as well as some of the older members of the club were my mentors and taught me so much about photography. Rob gave a class once on camera tricks he used out in the field and I still use them today. He was an awesome man and will be dearly missed . My deepest condolences to Pam and his family.
