Dr. Elia Zureik (Professor Emerita, Sociology):

I have fond memories of Bob. His decency, honesty and sharp intellect always impressed me, and I learned a lot from him about Canadian society when we edited a two-volume anthology on Canada. The occasion of Bob’s death coincided with the sad news around us in Canada and elsewhere on the occasion of COVID-19. Let us hope COVID-19 will before too soon become a distant memory.
