Re: [RBASE-L] - RIP Bob Castanaro

2016-12-23 Thread A. Razzak Memon 

It is hard to imagine losing someone so friendly, respectful, and professional
whom you have personally known for almost 19 years.

Bob never missed a single R:BASE Annual Conference nor an R:BASE training if
it was held in Monroeville, PA.

His dedication and sincere efforts to keep R:BASE alive, and keeping up with
his medical application at a major medical institution was simply superb.

R:BASE community has lost a good friend, developer, and most respectful person
to R:BASE Technologies and my family.

Rest in Peace, my friend!

I always enjoyed playful, friendly, respectful political disagreements with
Bob at Developers' Conferences, and he always had great ideas and experiences
to share from his hospital administration database applications.

Bob used Facebook quite a bit to stay connected to people, to share his 
struggles, his joyful love of a granddaughter, and to pay loving respects to 
his wife Nancy who died unexpectedly two years ago. Perhaps he or someone he 
trusted with the password has cleaned up some of that.

Looks like he has not used his Facebook account in the last couple of years

2016-12-23 Thread Paul C. Buckley 
It is with great sadness that I read of Bob’s death. He was such a great guy 
and made my trips to PA for R:BASE training & conferences so much more 
enjoyable. My prayers go out to his family & friends. I will be sure to raise a 
toast to this kind man over the holidays.

 

Rest in peace my friend,

Paul Buckley
