Robert J. Ehrenreich, 74, pediatrician, allergist and clinical assistant professor

Ehrenreich graduated from the UB medical school in 1947 at age 23. In the 1950s, he served as a captain in the U.S. Army in charge of pediatrics at Camp Atterbury in Indiana and Ft. Devens in Massachusetts.

In his 43-year practice of medicine, during which he served as a clinical assistant professor in the UB medical school, he was on the staffs of Children's, Millard Fillmore, Sisters, Kenmore Mercy and DeGraff Memorial hospitals. Ehrenreich, known as "Dr. Bob," continued the practice of house calls long after many physicians had abandoned it and often called his patients when he went out for the night. An early advocate of parent-effectiveness training, he taught parenting sessions in his office.

After traveling to tournaments with his tennis-playing daughter, Amy, Ehrenreich became a chair umpire with the United States Tennis Association and officiated at matches in many locations, including Madison Square Garden and Forest Hills. During those years, he had several encounters with the former tennis "bad boy," John McEnroe.

He is survived by his wife, Miriam; his daughter, Amy Haller of Penn Valley, Pa.; two sons, Richard A. of Potomac, Md., and David B. of Wynnewood, Pa.; a brother, Harold M.; a sister, Annette Irwin of Pembroke Pines, Fla., and four grandchildren.
