“Having only known Bob just under two years, and being at Special Optics due to his referral, he will be sorely missed; as a co-worker, as a mentor, as a friend. He was always available for questions, freely offered his advice, and often shared his incredible knowledge. Thank you, Bob. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. His legacy lives on through you all, and through the fond memories of him that we hold close.”

Steven Morales wrote a sympathy message

“My heart is heavy with the loss of Bobby. For over 25 years, he wasn’t just a colleague; he was a friend and family to me. Bobby was a master of his craft, creating lenses with a skill that was pure art. His joy in life came from simple things—his family, his dogs, and his metal-detecting adventures. I’ll always think of him whenever I see a telescope, knowing he made his own. Now, he’s the brightest star in the sky, shining down on us. Rest in peace, Bobby. You’ll be deeply missed. - Steven M.”
