Michelle: I am so so so sorry and saddened to hear the shocking news of Rob's death. I cannot even believe this. Someone from Home Depot bumped into Paul yesterday and told him and he told me. I am just horrified and my heart truly goes out to you. Please, if you need anything, or just need to talk, look us up and give me a call. We are still in Revere. Love Paul and Chris Citro

I am shocked and saddened to hear about Bobby. I pray for all of his family and friends that this time will be one of reflection of the smiles he was able to bring you all during his time here. As his old neighbor in Cambridge I remember watching him & Augusto play ball in the park with Zev and the rest of the guys. My deepest sympathy!

Friends and family:
I was shocked and saddened to hear of Rob's passing. I worked for years with him at the Saugus Home Depot, opening that store with him. Not only was he a great guy, but a devoted family man. God bless you through this painful time and take assurance that God is watching over Robert now.
