I met Bob while working at Medline and quickly found him to be a very kind and warm person. He was always very positive and greeted everyone with a smile. Even though he was a very busy guy, he would always find time to walk over to my cubicle for a daily chat with me and my teammate. Bob will be very missed and my deepest condolences to his family.

I had the pleasure of volunteering at Animal House Shelter with Bob. We were part of a group of volunteers together that are very passionate about caring for the animals and raising money for their care. Bob used his talents in technology to aid in trying to make things easier for us, as well as he brought friends and co-workers to attend fundraisers and to help volunteer and share in his passion. Bob was always a genuinely kind man and will be missed dearly. Our group will never be the same without him and pledges to continue this mission in his memory.

Bob was a true friend and animal lover. He was one of the first people I met when I started here at Medline and continued to be a close friend during the time I knew him. He gave much of his spare time volunteering and helping out animals in need. He always was positive, and a great guy to be around. He will be missed.

I met Bob at Medline and knew from the beginning he was a great guy to be around. He was someone who came to be very kind and reliable and was never afraid to engage in friendly chatter with me. I always enjoyed him talking about his volunteer efforts and showing me his dogs. I'll miss him dearly.

Bob and I grew up together on the same street. We were in the same kindergarten class. We walked to and from grammar school everyday. We were in summer camp together, Skokie Youth Baseball together, both huge Star Wars fans from the beginning. We rode are bikes up and down Monticello Ave. together when we weren't allowed to ride in the street. He was a great friend. Our little brothers were the same way. Have pictures from the reunion last year. Was so good to see him again. R.I.P. my old buddy.

I grew up with Bob. Always a nice guy. Liked music, cool toys and his cool boom box/ radio equipment. We had fun in Cub scouts and played in the school band. RIP Buddy. Very sorry to hear about the passing.
