It's been over 12 years since I last worked with the great Mr. Farber. Not only a talented body but a very gentle soul. 12 years later I am now hearing of my good friends passing. My deepest condolences go out to the family, and my deepest prayers are with Bob aka Mr. Jordan. 
RIP old friend
-Ian McLean 

Bob, 
Another year has passed since you left us. I say that carefully because I still feel you all around me, which is why I don’t think you completely left us. Your love lingers all around us. You bound in my heart, teaming with memories and laughter. You bring me unexpected joys by making my senses heightened to certain small miracles like music, nature, or a scent. I pray always for you sending you my love in any way I can by honoring you.   It is with hope, I see in my spirits eye, you with those we love in heaven. There is no pain only joy and love. I love you my brother, my hero ❤️

Bob, 
I miss you. So much life has happened since you left us. I wish I could see how proud you are of the family. I think of you every time I play guitar and sing Beatle songs. I wish I could sing them with you like we used to. I don’t like playing alone. I will take you in my heart as I travel to Italy next week. I wish we could have gone together. I’m sure I will tear up the entire trip. I know I won’t be alone. I love you Bob. 
Love,
Lissa 

A year has passed. We celebrated you and the love you have left us with last night. It's apparent that your legacy of love is alive and thriving. I am overtaken with emotion when I hear music that connects my heart to you. I still can't understand why this ever had to happen, and I am so sorry it did. I find peace in knowing you are not suffering anymore , but the raw emotion of missing you terribly is overwhelming. I hope that they have celebrations in heaven, and that you are surrounded by everyone we love. You will always be my hero, my awesome big brother.

As our birthday month is upon us, I reflect on the memorable times we shared. You taught me so much about what it meant to persevere in the face of adversity and the importance of laughter. I can still picture you singing in the backyard with your music, excited to head to the gym to build "substantial" muscles for Caden, and sitting at the table building puzzles and yelling, BAM whenever we found a matching piece. I will forever think of you when I see an episode of Hawaii Five-O and remember the way we would sing the theme song together. Happy Birthday! Miss ya Farb

I think about you all the time uncle bob. You were like a second father to me. My childhood is flooded with memories of you. You were at every high school event of mine. You seemed to always believe in me, you made me feel greater than I thought I could ever be. You gave me so much wisdom, and impacted my life deeply. You even gave me dating advice. I could talk to you just about anything...
 When you fell sick, I refused to believe it was happening. And then all of a sudden, it seemed to have swept you away...
I've missed you for so long uncle bob. I've missed hearing you laugh, I've missed your stories. I'm glad I got to tell you everything I wanted to say while you were here. But now I get to hear from you. You are free....I'm listening. I feel you around sometimes... 
I just want you to know how awesome you are uncle bob. You're the best uncle a girl could have. I feel the love you have for me when I look at my own little niece. I want to be there for her as much as you were for me.
I love you always. So much.

I am so sorry to hear of Bob's passing.  I was fortunate to have seen him on stage several times, his performances were always delightful, very well done!  The handful of times we spoke in passing back stage, he was always kind and engaging.  His presence, stature and charming smile will be missed greatly.  Sincerely, The Pugh Family

I'll never forget the times I had with you as my baseball coach and outside of baseball. You definitely had a positive impact on more then just me. I'm happy you are resting peacefully and I'll always know that no matter the baseball game I can look down third base and see you hollering at me! RIP UNCLE BOB.

Wish we could have been there Tuesday to pay our final respects to a great guy, and to express our condolences to Sharon, Bob Jr., Lissa and the family. He is now at peace.    Dad and Mom

It was a beautiful service on Tuesday.  I want to share my love for Bob with Sharon, Bobby and the rest of the Farber family.  I am truly sorry for your loss.  Bob made an impact on many lives.  I'll remember how passionate Bob was in everything he did and his joyful smile.  He was the best Ludawgs baseball fan in the late 80s & early 90s!  Never shy to let umpires know when they blew a call. :)  Then, getting to spend every day with Bob as my boss at Symark for 4 years was a gift.  He combined high expectations with a lot of support and encouragement.  He genuinely cared about my success and was always available to help.  I'm regretful to have only seen Bob occasionally since then--when our baseball paths would cross with Cody's NP games.  Bob was a great mentor for me and I offer and eternal Thank You!

Bob became a friend when he signed on to play the "heavenly, Mr. Jordan" in my production of HEAVEN CAN WAIT at the Conejo Players Theatre in 2010. What a true joy to work with and such a lovely man. He just loved acting and brought a dignity and presence to the role that everyone appreciated. He was the "glue" to the production and beloved by all. I feel so honored to have met and worked with him. I shall always remember his brilliant smile and quite ways, as will the rest of the cast and crew. While truly saddened by his passing, he is now the "heavenly, Mr. Farber" looking down from the heavens and I just know he's wearing a white tuxedo and tails! Love and miss you, Bob!

Dear Sharon & members of the Farber family.
I was Bob's Occupational Therapist at Lost Robles Hospital. I really enjoyed meeting and working with him. He always had a big smile, positive attitude, and was very motivated to participate in his therapy. He had a real zest for life & good sense of humor, too. I'm very sorry for your loss and I wanted to express my condolences on behalf of myself and all of the rehab staff whom had the pleasure of meeting and helping him while he was our patient here. I also wanted to say how truly moved I was during his memorial service. I'll never forget your grandaughter coming over to give you a hug Sharon, then placing her hands on your shoulders, looking you in the eye, then hugging you again. You could really feel the warmth. It was a beautiful and moving tribute that I'll never forget. Know that you will remain in our thoughts and prayers.
Take care & please stay in touch,
Suzanne Mortimer-Crawford, MA, OTR/L

The service for Bob was so beautiful today. I was humbled by his wife Sharon's eulogy. I don't know how she was able to get through that. She was a beautiful rock up there. She truly honored our dear friend and fellow actor Bob Farber. What an incredible man, husband, father, grandfather, uncle, friend, and more. He touched so many lives. I will never forget how important acting was to him. I had the joy and pleasure of directing him in two main stage productions. He performed the role of Johnny in "Lovers and Other Strangers" at Conejo Players where he was absolutely hilarious. And then he was the perfect Judge Gaffney in "Harvey" at the Santa Paula Theater Center. Bob was a directors dream. He was always prepared, always enthusiastic, and always brought more to the character at every rehearsal and performance. He was sometimes hard on himself when he made the rare mistake, like the time he called Harvey the rabbit a bear, instead of a rabbit. We are all still laughing at that one. As his wife Sharon shared that he had a great love for everyone, I recalled how he always made me feel like I was the best director in the world. I'm not of course, but Bob made me feel like I was, and that is really something. I would have cast Bob in every play I ever directed. I will miss him terribly. I love you Bob.

Rarely did you miss a game and I guess the Worrelllll family can rest easy now that you are no longer their worst nightmare...

Bob Sr. you will be missed by so many of us who had the honor of your friendship. You were a friend, father figure and role model to all of us who wore the graple. 

My heart goes out to Sharon, Bob Jr., and the rest of your family with hopes of healing and peace. 

One final time - Cal-Lu, Cal-Lu

I will miss ya Pops...

Dear Lissa and family:

We were very sorry to hear of the loss of your brother.  Our thoughts and prayers will be with you on Tuesday.

Kathy, Jim, Shannon & Shaun (Thoma-Stittsworth)

Uncle Bob even though we are miles apart, LOVE has no boundaries. You will always have a very special place in my heart. I will always remember you playing and singing for us as kids. Give my love to everyone upstairs. Especially my dad, you BIG brother Bill. Miss you!!

Bob was a wonderful person and our family is blessed to have known him. I can truly say that both Cody and Riley will forever remember "Uncle Bob" and the wisdom and fun he brought to the baseball field. Years after little league was over Bob would show up at the high school to watch "his boys" play...and the boys were always thrilled to see him. Bob will be missed. 
With love and fond memories, The Elliott's, John, Becky, Cody and Riley.

Rest in peace Bob Sr. Your Cal Lu family is blessed to have had you as a team member and friend.

May the wonderful memories you have a Bob console you and bring a smile to your face.

To the entire Farber family I extend my sincere sympathy on Bob's passing.  What a great heart and soul he had - he will be missed by all.
Cal Lu Class of 91

Wow you will be missed. I will always remember your passion for Baseball and your son! You were genuinely interested in your son's teammates lives too. The way that you listened, communicated, and shared was off the charts awesome. Always so upbeat. You had such a positive impact on all people around you Bob.  Rich Hill

Bob, I know you only through Lissa's stories. She cherished her Big Brother. Rest  in Peace.

Bob was a great guy and helped me get started my career in security software sales.  After three interviews, over as many years, he and I decided that Symark Software was going to be the place for me to be starting April 2001.  Bob was brilliant, tough, fare, and we shared a mutual love of Rock-n-Roll, and performing on stage.  
I am shocked to learn that he is no longer with us.  My most heartfelt condolences to his family and closest friends.

I will always miss you my amazing big brother!! You are the best that a little sister could ever wish for. To be by your side every morning as you bravely faced this illness, was a journey of love that has changed me forever. To be by your side when you took your last breath, was an honor. You have wrapped yourself around me like a whisper. I feel your love everywhere. I will see you again in heaven Bobby.

You had such a great impact on so many lives.  In 1989 through 1992, you were without a doubt the number one Kingsman Baseball Fan.  You and your family were so welcoming to so many young ballplayers who came to Thousand Oaks to play ball with your son.  We all enjoyed your enthusiasm for our team and your love for the sport.  

The years past and the young men that you rooted for moved back home and started families of their own.  As fathers of a new generation of children involved in their own activities, I think that we all have strived to be like Big Bob when rooting on our own children's teams.  Bob, you were an amazing role model to so many future fathers!

My heart goes out to the Farber family. I'm so sad to hear of your loss.  i just want you to know that I am yet I am very thankful that I had the chance to know Big Bob.

I remember the first time we met you. It was at a little league baseball game .You had such a big heart you coached on not only Cody but our whole team.If I remember correctly we went on to the playoffs.(It was a great memory) My hope is that the memories you have built continues through your families heart. If it be a song, a play, a baseball or even just a guitar in someones hand. You left this earth very loved. My peace be with you. Terri and John McKeehan
