Bob Waddell has always carried himself with high integrity displaying excellent communication skills while maintaining a high level of technical expertise in LCD panels he marketed from a variety of sources. Bob was proactive, supportive and above all someone who worked issues in a very timely manner. It was a pleasure working with Bob during his Avnet days and I hope Bob and I will have the chance to collaborate in the future.
