Michele D wrote a sympathy message

“Bob was my boss & mentor at Danbury (Ct.) News-Times, a newspaper that achieved journalistic prominence during his leadership. He inspired award-winning stories & drew top-flight reporters, but ultimately was fired for refusing to identify union activists. His departure triggered staff flight & an era of dwindling ambition. Blacklisted but not bitter, Bob switched to academia at universities in Pennsylvania & Florida. Lucky them. Lucky me, for a great teacher & lifelong friend. Michele Derus”
