Rob was a great maker, teacher, and deeply engaged in the Boston film community. He always made my visits to Boston such a joy. The first time I met Rob in person, we took a long walk along the Charles. He was always very giving with his time. I can say that Rob truly is one of the warmest and most generous individuals I have shared time with. My heart goes out to his family, friends and those in the Boston community who knew Rob.
