Bob was a great guy and in my early years working as Recreation Director with the Borough of Roseland, his volunteer service to our 5K Run for the Roses Event was invaluable.
Not only did he assist me in various Pre and Post Race Tasks, but he was a terrific resource, regarding registrants, as he would pass the information along to many local Running Clubs that he was affiliated with.
I'm sure he will be sorely missed by many loved ones he left behind.
God Bless!!!

Dear Ober family,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your dad--Mr. Indek just emailed a few of us to let us know of the news and through my internet stalking, I was able to find this site (I hope this gets to you).
Your dad was a special guy--the Mr. Rogers of track coaches and 5th grade teachers. I attended Glen Ridge schools, graduating in 2002, just as your dad was retiring off to Las Vegas. I was on the track team at GRHS and though I wasn't a distance runner, because I knew your dad through my time at Glen Ridge Middle School, he'd always check in to see how my meets were going and how school was. He was just a genuinely lovely human being who I feel very lucky to have had in my life growing up.
There was a girl also on the track team, who whenever your dad's name was mentioned would sing-songily sing, B-O-B-O-B-E-R! BOBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB Ober! When I saw Mr. Indek's email, I immediately sang that song and thought fondly about what a great guy your dad was. Thank you for sharing with him with so many students growing up. We are all so grateful.
Sending love, warm thoughts, and good health to you all.
May your dad's memory be a blessing.
Best wishes,
Robin Cohen

Dear Keith, Kimberly, & Kevin,
Words cannot express my sorrow. Uncle Bob was one of the happiest people I knew. One of the things I admired about him. Some of my greatest life experiences were shared with him and I will hold those memories close to my heart. May you all find peace and comfort during this sad time. ❤
