I was very sad to hear of Rob’s passing. I was an old classmate of Rob from med school. We completed our biochemistry degrees together. He was one of the great class characters with an enterprising and ebullient spirit. I was looking forward to catching up with him at our 50th class reunion. Unfortunately this is not to be. I send my sincere condolences to you all.
As I would have expected he has had a life well lived.
