Dear Michael (and others) -
Thank you for sharing this sad news. What a tremendous loss for our SDOH
community.
It was a treat to work with Bob from time to time - he seemed ever sharp and
passionate about whatever it was that was in front of us. I'll miss him.
Hope his family and loved ones are coping okay, and that his colleagues at
the WI will soldier on.
Take care -
Ketan.

By now, many of you will have heard the sad news that Bob Gardner, Director
of Policy at the Wellesley Institute, passed away peacefully late last week
with his life partner at his side. There is an on-line obituary for Bob
here:

Bob worked in the community, in government, in academia and wore many hats
as an activist and a research and policy leader in health equity. He will be
sadly missed, and his life and his work will be celebrated.
