It is always hard to lose a good friend, and Bob Farley was one of the very best.

For more than two decades he oversaw the growth of the Georgia Ensemble Theatre and did it with great aplomb. He understood what makes an area desirable is transportation, education and cultural arts. Hartsfield-Jackson fueled the growth of the Atlanta area and as it grew, he was one who was determined to grow with it, and provide good theatre to the community outside the perimeter.

We lost Bob on November 30th. He may be gone but he shall never be forgotten, and always remembered for his great contributions to our community. On Monday, he was fondly remembered at a Celebration of His Life attended by hundreds of theatre folks and us plain folk as well.

We all said, Thank you Bob.
