Bob believed will all of his heart in the value of public educational television and dedicated his entire professional life to its betterment. CUNY TV, City University of New York, and the NYC community are a richer place for those efforts.  Jerry W Carlson

I have known Bob for over 20 years in many capacities - as Vendor, Sales Engineer, Automation Support Technician, Digital Media Consultant, Principle Engineer for the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism and Executive Engineer CUNY-TV. To me, he was always friendly, helpful and concerned for my well being. 

It was an honor for me to help Bob achieve his goals.  Through all of our time together I found out that, it was Bob’s Vision for Television, and for his love of all its things - from Theatrical, to Technical to Talent - that fueled his drive to achieve his many goals for CUNY-TV.  To me, his career and legacy is embodied in this quotation.

                     “LifeLong Learning Through Quality Television”

I send my most heartfelt condolences to Bob’s family and loved ones in these difficult times. He is a force that we shall miss, along with as his stories and sense of humor.

I am so deeply sorry for your loss.
I have fond memories .  For me Bob was the best. He hired me on the spot and I learned so much with him as my jefe - that’s  how - he would asked me - how you say in Spanish, boss. He had such a pleasure at doing what he loved for the station. Told me stories of his family and vacations when he was a child in Argentina- fishing.. because I love fishing.  I remember how proud and happy he was as a father.  He will forever live in my heart and memory as long as I live. Much love to you all!

We are sending our condolences to the entire family. We are very sorry to hear of your loss. May your. husband, father, father in law and grandfather be a blessing to all of you. Rest in peace Robert.

Bob Isaacson dedicated  more than thirty years of professional life to supporting public university education through the vehicle of City University Television / CUNY TV. As its Executive Director for many years, his genuine passion for the mission was constant, unshakeable, and contagious. Year after year he brimmed with new ideas about a next chapter in what the station could do. He called it "the best job a guy could ever have." CUNY was fortunate to have such a servant.

Bob had only one greater love: his family. Husband and father were his greatest roles. 

RIP, Bob.
With deepest condolences,
Jerry W Carlson
