I knew Bob for over three decades after joining the reenactment community at age 14 in 1986. Bob had a boisterous, outgoing personality, an infectious laughter and the ability to bring humor to any situation, no matter how bleak! Whether in the middle of a rainy weekend or a living history trip gone wrong, Bob's jokes and humor kept everyone afloat. When I went overseas for the first time with him on the American Civil War Society of England's tour in 1991, every moment with Bob was packed with humor, irony and always - lots of laughs. It's been said that the best gift someone can give is the gift of laugher. Well, Bob kept it up for all his friends all the time. Rest in Peace Bob, you are loved and missed !

Dear Nell and everyone in the Schindler family,
My deepest sympathy to all of you on the loss of Bob. He was a dear, long-time friend to all of us at Fort Ward. Over the years, we enjoyed having him participate in many programs as a reenactor. His wonderful sense of humor, knowledge and willingness to always help out was much appreciated by our staff. Some of my fondest memories are of his role as drill sergeant for our Civil War Kids Camp - he was great, and the kids loved him! I've posted a couple of photos from those memorable days. What a gift to have known someone like him! All my best and thinking of you, Susan.

Helen, Nell and Milo,
Please know that Archie and I are very sad that Bob is not with us now. He is probably that eagle we occasionally see and hear in the sky. It was only by chance that I found out that Bob served in the U. S. Army and we both crossed paths in the same Army Unit years apart. "Those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength; They will mount up with the wings of eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary." Isaiah 40:31.
Know that prayers are with you.
Mary Beth and Archie

Bob's humor, laugh, voice will not be forgotten. An incident, repeated often both before and after his stroke, occurred at a Kena Shrine meeting whenever Brother Leonard/Shorty Seip was present. A voice would boom "Where the hell is Brother Shorty going to sit?" Slight pause. "Any damn place he wants." Of course, we all knew it was a welcome warmly given (and warmly received).
Nell, I have truly missed losing touch with you and Bob, have been thinking of you frequently recently.
Sincere sympathy and love, Mary Elizabeth

Our sincere sympathies. We were reenacting friends with Bob & Nell.
Bob came to our aid once when our axle on our trailer came loose in downtown Vienna Va. when they had the mainstreet down to 2 lanes during construction. What a jam and irate drivers. I called Bob and he was there in 10 min. and helped me find a shop to fix my axle. He then took us and bought dinner and turned a bad day into a great memory. God Bless. Rex & Bonnie Hovey
