Bob was an extraordinary soul. He loved his students and colleagues and his mathematical work. And he changed the conversation about the teaching of differential equations in this country. But most importantly, what I admire and appreciate about Bob was the gentle way in which his good cheer and earnest affection brought out the best in people. He had a vision to help shape a department where people like myself could flourish as scholars and as human beings.
