Personal note from Kristin

I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the wonderful support from beloved friends and colleagues. To my best friends, Rachel (Starr)and Erika, thank you for your tremendous help with the memorial planning and getting Rob’s memorial web page set up. I’m so grateful for your support and unwavering friendship, in both difficult and happy times.
Thank you to my UC Davis CPE friends and colleagues for their generous support, particularly in keeping Gavin and me fed during this extraordinarily hard time.
Thank you to my cherished book club friends for everything from dropping off delicious home-cooked meals to helping clean up our neglected yard and more.
I am truly in awe of the outpouring of kindness, generosity and support we’ve received since Rob’s sudden passing. I will forever be grateful for this incredible community of love and support, which has lifted us up and carried us through our deepest sorrow.
