I met Bob Raiter at NC. State University in 1979. We shared a passion for the Raleigh punk rock scene, especially Th' Cigaretz. Bob designed many of their flyers and the cover for their "Crawl Rite Outta My Skin" LP. We each ended up in Washington, DC around 1981 and were roommates for a while, but we eventually drifted apart some time in the late 80's. I was saddened to learn of his death and created this site as a remembrance. If you have pictures of Bob, please send to me at Malco23@gmail.com

I met Bob back in 1980 in Raliegh NC. I was in college there and following local band like The Cigaretz and the Fabulous Knobs. I think it was Malcolm who introduced me at one of his radio shows on the college station. We spent many long nights printing after hours at the design school.I still have a few cherished copies of album covers and posters from the day. He was so alive with creative energy, and such a fun nice guy. I am sad to hear of his passing. The world will miss his light.
