I'm so sorry I couldn't there with John and the rest of WSSC'S family. Bobby was one of a kind, I will always remember him for his crazy jokes and the timing he had on telling me one.

Dear Aunt Lynda, RK and Stephanie: my sincere sympathy on Uncle Bobby's passing. He was one-of-a-kind in our family, and will be sorely missed. I always had a blast hanging out with him at family events, and looked forward to hearing him greet me with "What's happening, Neph?" He and I spent many an enjoyable Sunday working at Uncle Smitty's gas station years ago. I also remember all the great times Dad and I joined your family up at Lincoln Speedway in Hanover, PA...such great memories. Please take care and know I am thinking of you.

The "Neph,"

If I had a dime for every joke Uncle Bobby told in his lifetime....well we all know I would be a multi millionaire! His laugh, his grin, his fun loving spirit will never be forgotten. Kind hearted man to the fullest extent. Take care of Dad and all your family who has welcomed you!
Miss you dearly! Love always, Your niece Diane and family

I have many fond memories of Opening Day Games at the old Memorial Stadium. Dad, Uncle Bobby, RK, Kenny and I froze most years but had good times. It was always an adventure getting home, too. Oh...and the stories about moving that piano. :-)
My thoughts and prayers to his family.
