"He was a big guy in my life. Really an impressive guy. People remember Bob from basketball and I really don't. He was a great basketball player but I met him when I was young, in high school."
"I remember him talking to me and really struggling. I thought how courageous that was. That an NBA player would speak to a bunch of kids at a park. It was just so impressive to me."
"For whatever reason, Bob took a liking to me. He would give me his shoes. Just a powerful guy. A tough guy. I think he epitomized Chicago in a lot of ways with his toughness and how we grew up."
"He conquered the hardest thing that he could conquer and that was his stuttering problem."
