I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Bob’s passing. We were good friends, many years ago and like so many childhood friends, we lost touch over the years. I have many fond memories of him, especially his beautiful smile, infectious laugh, his love of music, especially Bob Dylan (Positively Fourth Street) and his motor cycle. My condolences to his wife Jamie and family. Truly our loss and heaven’s gain. Rest in Peace my friend.
To Bob’s family,
Sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Bob was a great guy and a great friend. He was lot of fun.
