Bob Conklin was a major influence on my young life, and I will be forever grateful to him. There are too many stories and too many fond memories from the early 1970s to even begin a tribute. Once, many years later, when I met Howard Zinn, my first thought was how much he looked like Bob Conklin. Anyway, thank you Bob. God bless you, Phyllis and Celeste and the rest of the Conklin family.
