Dear Barbara and Tammy, I only knew Bob in his last years, but what a wonderful man! It was a real pleasure to see Bob and Barbara interact in love. I'm so very glad they found each other. The world will miss Bob, and so will his friends. God Bless you all.

To the family of Robert Kupperman,
I am Joe Rubinstein's sister and I also remember Bob very well. We lived on the same block on East Broadway and probably saw each other every day for many years. I also remember his father and mother.
Bob was a very smart student and loved to play with his chemistry set, setting off many reactions to the delight of the children in the neighborhood. I have followed his career and you should be very proud of his accomplishments.

Dear family of Robert Kupperman:
My condolences on your loss. I was a childhood friend of Bob's when we lived three houses apart on East Broadway on New York's Lower East Side. Although about 60 years have passed, I remember him fondly and well. I especially remember his interest in chemistry and how he always managed to mix chemicals that made big bangs. We spent one happy summer together at camp Chippenaw.
I have seen Bob on television many times and have always been proud of his accomplshments. I have often thought of re-establishing contact, but put that off too often, and now it is too late.
I also have good memories of Ina and how she sometimes played on our back porch, but she may not remember as she was very young.

Tammy
May I express my deepest sympathy during your time of grieving. Your father was an extraordinary person. I am a old friend of your Grandmother Rose and she always expressed her admiration for the work her son accomplished during his career.
Please also give my sympathy to his wife and sister.
Sincerely
Linda
