"Bob honored with a proclamation from the mayor and city of Superior
designating Sunday, July 21 as Bob Browne and Lake Superior Day"
Bob Browne, of Superior Wisconsin passed away yesterday. When I lived up North, I had the honor of knowing Bob, and learning from him. He was a peaceful warrior, protecting his beloved watershed. "Bob was always involved in trying to make the lives of others better. Whenever he got an idea about a way he could help, he went for it. He knocked on doors and made calls until, most of the time, he got what he wanted." Superior Telegram .
"Bob Browne was a champion for water, youth, community, conservation, good government, involvement, and most of all, always a champion for clean water. He rarely spoke without reminding us that “Water is life; and the quality of water determines the quality of life.” His life Advanced the Vision for Lake Superior." Bruce Lindgren.

Bob influenced many and blessed us with his wisdom, wit, gentle spirit, great laugh and abiding sense of guardianship for the environment.
Bob was a force of nature (and _for_ it!). I didn't know him well, but I took that impression away from our first meeting very clearly.
