“I met Robert while working on a contract with Barnes&Noble/Nook in 2011 and stayed in touch with him afterwards. He was an invaluable source of technical info, whether Mac, Windows or beyond. Scored some sweet deals on hardware over the years! ;-) Entrusted him with upgrading my Mac and Win laptops (peace of mind vs inviting disaster attempting myself). Often go someplace to eat while upgrades running. Last saw him less than a month prior. Wondered why he was MIA on texts? Shocking and sad. ;-(”

“In loving memory of Robert Douglas Chong, I met Robert while working at Barnes and Noble/Nook. He is our IT person and even though after we left the company, Robert and I along with another friend, David remains friends and often go to movies and restaurants. Robert continue to help my IT needs and the last time we texted he was asking if I wanted to watch Mission impossible. I found out Robert attended Monterey Bay Academy which is where I went for high school. Rest in peace, Robert.”

“I met Rob through a common friend back in the late 80's maybe early 90's. Rob initially mentored me in Firearms and the laws for its accountability. The technique of reloading was a catalyst for my deep knowledge in this area. I'm forever grateful for his mentoring and friendship through the years.”
