Hey Bobby, You were a big brother to many of us at the Pub. You were kind to all while trying to keep us straight.
When I saw you at Dominic's (35 year gap) it was like i hit the lottery. It was truly fantastic to see you again.
Love ya Brother,
Jeff Pettenati
Craig, Bobby and Megan I knew your Uncle way before I found Olney. He was always comforting and will be missed by all. GOD Bless ya all.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Hewitt family. Tom was truly a neighbor, a friend. He always did for others with no expectations in return. My family and I will treasure the memories of our next door neighbor. We gave you fruit baskets, but you were pure fruit juice to all you came in contact with. You are missed.

Bobby was a good friend and I enjoyed his company always. He was so pleasant and personable. He was a great card player and a good cousin to me.

Bobby, was one of my longest and oldest friends. I never saw him down, always a positive, happy and joking soul who would give the shirt off his back for those in need. I will miss the Juma Kid, he was a true friend.

Bobby, my friend and business partner for too short of time. Your wit was unique, kindness unmatched, and generosity unparalleled. Firsthand I saw you touch people with thoughtful insight and helpful deeds. You cared for others and always went beyond what was asked. You were always there for me. Flip, flop, and fly! You are missed and you are loved.

I have such wonderful memories growing up with Bobby, Craig and all the others on Hewitt Avenue. The adventures we shared when we were young (and the stories from those adventures) were some really good times! Bobby was always a sweet guy and lots of fun (besides the fact that he and I were the best snow riding team on the block). The twinkle in his eye and his joyful attitude could always make you smile.

My condolences to all who knew and loved him. He will be greatly missed!

Bobby, you were only in my life for a few short years and our visits were few and far between, but I am incredibly grateful to have known you. I'm so happy that you were able to come out to WV this summer to visit. Thank you for always being there for Frank and Linda. You'll always hold a special place in my heart.
