"Unfortunately it is with a heavy heart that I share Rob has been found. We are deeply saddened but take comfort that he ed while doing what he loved," family spokeswoman Victoria Gormley wrote, according to Canadian broadcaster CBC.

The Coast Guard says it searched a 5,500 sq mile area (14,244 sq km).

Rob briefly surfaced and then disappeared while diving with friends near the Florida Keys Tuesday January 31. It was reported to beeing a difficult dive. He was diving about six miles off the coast of Islamorada.

Bruno Chatelin commented "I am deeply affected and sorry by this loss. Rob's films Sharkwater and Revolution have travelled in a few hundreds festivals. And I have been very proud to work with him these past 4 years helping his films connect with festival crowds. His film last premiered to a full house in Arcata (California) during Ocean Day on Feb 2nd, the search was still on, and the crowd was very moved by that news and his film commented the festival director". 

I will be very happy to share your comments with Rob's Parents: Sandy and Brian and his sister Alexandra.

Our thoughts and prayers go to Rob and his family.

I though you would enjoy reading the wonderful words of those who met him and testify of his legacy.
