I'm looking at a photo. Bob, somehow the real center of the wedding picture, standing slightly askance while SWMBO & I answer "I do" to the fey judge's interrogatives.

Unforgettable short stories that I read & reread and then read again because they made me smile - and consider.

There was a sweetness about Bob that is lacking in so many of the rest of us. Mankind is diminished by his passing.

There was a parcel of him that did not recognize his worth. "I write stories for fifteen year olds," he once said with a rather deprecating shrug. Perhaps he did, but half a century later those stories remain as bright whimsical memories that still bring forth a smile. Man is diminshed by his passing.

He was plagerized by ... nearly everyone who came after. Art is diminished by his passing.

In the Afterworld there is a tiny Mediterranean Isle , with sunny beachs, clear skies and a secret passage to Metropolis for those moments when Metropolis is needed.

Adios Roberto - hasta la vista - I am diminished ...
