He was a wonderful person, I am sad and sorry.

It’s so saddening to hear this terrible news. I distinctly remember Robert from his time at Goldsmiths; he brought so much to us all, with his energy, his commitment, and his sense of giddy adventure. Don, you were of course a fundamental a part of the adventure of that time, and I’m sure that continued into your life together since. My profound condolences to you and to everyone close to Robert.

I knew Robert from his time working with at Howard Fry Studios as a stylist. He was a very special, kind person, and my heart goes out to Don. I had lost contact with him for many years, but have always admired his talent. I have two of his paintings on my wall. I stumbled across this obituary by sheer coincidence.
