We are saddened to announce that Bob Spear, friend, teacher, carver, naturalist, father, partner, and so much more, passed away on Sunday, October 19, 2014, surrounded by family and friends.
We at the Birds of Vermont Museum extend our deep condolences to everyone who knew him. We are and always will be grateful for all Bob shared with us: his passion for birds, his gift with wood, his constancy, persistence, dry humor, and deep knowledge.
We will pass on information about further arrangements when we learn of them.
You are welcome to call or write to us; we will pass messages to his family as well. Please stay in touch.

Such sad news. I was lucky to meet him on a visit to the museum. Very impressive work and dedication.
