As Bob's supervisor for many years, I will always remember his dedication and service to his job and to the campus. He was a gentleman who was well liked by all of those with whom he worked. I hope that heaven has pencils for his crossword puzzles. Rest in peace.

Bob Hacker was a good friend and co-worker of mine for many years at Memorial Library. His kindness, integrity, love of his family, and some of the simple things in life he cherished, will always stay with me. I’m very thankful I had Bob as a friend. I truly feel that Bob’s outlook on life helped make me a better person. I’ll miss him. Dennis Bloom

Bob was a wonderful guy. I worked with him for many years and he was the one that would open the doors early in the morning to start my day. I always loved his smile and his joy for life. I think of him often so I hope now he may rest in peace. He has left some great memories for many and will not be forgotten

I had many good conversations with Bob in Memorial Library where we both worked. He took his job very seriously and was immediately right there when you needed him. We would chat nearly every day by the library entrance when I worked at the Information Desk. We talked about our kids and love of the outdoors. Bob loved talking about and was very proud of his son Brian.
