Additionally, in 1978 Bob spent 6 months in Oban, Scotland working with the Scottish Marine Biological Association and in 1988 Bob and Jo went to Argentina under a Fulbright Scholarship.
Bob’s love for the Finger Lakes and the community of which he was a part was superseded only by his love for his family. He was an inspiration to many not only in his intelligence and scientific knowledge, but also in his patient and modest way. Bob leaves behind his loving wife of 62 years, a daughter Kitty Robinson (Andy), a son Kurt, a sister Anita (Richard) O’Toole, and a brother Michael (Virginia) Werner and 5 grandchildren; Jeff (Jamie), Corey and Haley Werner, Rachel and Anita Robinson.
There is a CaringBridge website for Robert Werner where we will post information on a memorial sometime in the future. You can subscribe to the site to receive e-mail updates.
Donations can be made to Skaneateles Lake Association or Finger Lakes Land Trust.
