Note: I was born a couple of weeks early. The blast from a V2 strike in north London knocked over a bus two streets away. My Mum was on board, travelling to my (late) Dad's parents' home in Woodford. She went into premature labour. I was born at 18.58 on April 12, 1945 - the same minute that Franklin D Roosevelt died.

Note: (Research):Messages left on flickr after his wife posted this: Over the years, Bob got so much pleasure from sharing pictures and comments with the Flickr community. Thank you all, Mrs F
Bob was one of the brightest lights I've ever encountered online. Very sad I could never meet him in person. He will be much missed here on Flickr and everywhere else. A wonderful human being.
.je vous souhaite de surmonter cette perte et reste d�sol�e de ne pu avoir fait sa connaissance autrement qu'au travers de ses photographies et sa gentillesse sur flickr... amicalement.
A lovely man who made the world a brighter place.
I'll miss his wit.
I've just heard.My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
I am sure that many friends from the group visual echo (comment with images, not words). are feeling very sad, like me, for the loss of .
I hope nobody minds that I use his own picture for an echo. What a lovely tribute! Bob's six-word story for his photo was -- now hauntingly -- "My soul is in the sky." I miss him lots.
He was a popular fellow Flickrite.
I'm another in the long list of people who will really miss Bob's presence in the Flickrworld. I was always happy when he commented, and i loved to roam through his photos. My sympathy goes out to you.
I will really miss his witty comments and captions. Thank you for letting us know.
I always felt I knew him and he encouraged me in my early days on Flickr with his witty and humorous comments. Flickr won't be the same.
I always liked to get his comments.
I just saw this astonishing notice with the wonderful photo of Bob. Thank you for letting us know. This is terrible news. He has been a favorite contact on Flickr -- with his creative photos, wonderful sense of humor, and thoughtful commentary. I will miss him. My deepest sympathy to you.
Anne.

Je n'arrive pas � y croire ! J'ai eu le grand plaisir de partager avec Bob les images et les bons mots pendant 3 ans... De tout coeur avec vous, Madame.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
I will miss him big time as we have been flickr friends for a number of years and loved his wit and big sense of humour. Thank you for letting us know.
I will really miss his witty comments and captions.
