Bob was a good childhood friend of mine. He was bright, thoughtful and intense. We had wonderful conversations, including one about the radio show "Amos n Andy." I remember talking about how, even though it might be funny, it also perpetuated racial stereotypes.
We reconnected over the winter of 2019-2020, and met for lunch in Florida in early March, just before the Pandemic restrictions happened. He was grateful for my bringing his old letters and high school photos of us. It was a lovely reunion....
