  1. Condolences to the Wittenberg family. Bob and I were good friends in high school. He will be missed . RIP

  2. Bob seemed to always be smiling. He was great to work with, share a beer, and had a wonderful outlook. My deepest condolences to his family and to those that knew Bob.

  3. My memories of Bob date back to when I was in college taking a course in British literature. His help and humorous comments got me through the course and also made it better. But that was just the kind of person he was. It feels like so long ago.

  4. I worked with Bob at Hawkeye. He was always happy and a really nice man.
    I am very sorry for your loss. Becky
