I remember sitting opposite Bob at The PA Dinners and listening to his stories. Bob was a great guy.
Rest In Peace Bob
Bob and I were foot cops in the old 14th Pct. back in the 60s. We frequently had adjoining posts. We spent
a lot of time together. He convinced me to give John Jay college a try. Even set up a meeting with a
college counselor for me. 10 years later I had a law degree from St. John’s. Probably would never have
happened without Bob getting me started. A great guy. My sincere condolences to the family.
Thanks so much for great memories endless laughs, and great mentor/friendship.
We love and miss you. Until the next time we meet.
Thank you Bob for tolerating my craziness for all those years as my office mate. I will always remember the “Ninja” preparing for his classes. I have missed, since I retired, our great conversations, the stories you told me of the old NYPD and the many stories we told each other of the old 42nd Street. Good bye Bob.
Professor Alexander, I just met someone today that reminded me of you and it had me thinking. I looked you up to see how you’ve been after 3 years of taking my Juvenile Justice and CRJ Capstone classes with you and I found this. May you fly high and the Lord have you in his glory.
