Rob left a lasting impact on the lives of so many that will remain forever. His gentle warmth exuded in every aspect of his life.  Rob married his high school sweetheart Nina who he was perfectly matched with in every way. He was the most devoted husband and together they built a beautiful life in partnership.  Rob was the epitome of an ideal father - affectionate, proud and always deeply involved in Madeleine and Brody’s lives. He coached softball and baseball for his children and loved skiing, biking, & travel including summers by the beach with his family. Rob was a devoted son who shared a loving relationship with his mother Audrey, late father Robert and sister Kyra. The family would very much like to acknowledge the very close relationships he shared with his relatives, lifelong friends, colleagues and co-workers. Rob always spoke of you all so warmly and appreciated you more than you will ever know.  Childhood friends who have been like family, as well as the multitude of work colleagues he had built very personal and professional relationships with.  Rob touched so many locally who became dear friends who will miss him beyond which words can convey. We will all miss you so much Robert. Contributions in Robert’s memory may be made to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, 1275 York Ave., New York, NY 10065.
