    I met Bob when he interviewed me for a position in the aircraft operations division in 1990. He immediately impressed me with his intelligence, humor, and incredible personal depth. Although I ended up in MOD under Gene Kranz, Bob was always the same gracious and friendly professional in all of our subsequent interactions. An amazing man, whose life left an indelible impression on all who met him.
