Thanks to everyone who sent their love and prayers to my family...My Uncle Robbie will be missed, and never forgotten. His harmonica playing, smile, and laughter will be in all of our hearts forever and ever! Thank You!

No words can describe the pain and sadness that I feel. No one will ever compare to my dad, he was one of a kind. He could just walk into a room and make everyone laugh and if he was in a bad mood...watch out...lol. His jokes and stories and everything about him will forever be missed. He always came up with the most random things to say and I loved when I heard his stereo blasting cause I knew he was in an extra good mood which meant extra fun and laughter. I am so lucky to have had him for...

Just found out today the 15th, I'm shocked! Rob & I were friends for about 40 years. He always made me laugh! My condolences to his family and friends...

Lisa & family,
I just read the sad news. So very sorry for your loss. I haven't seen you or Rob (Video) in many years but he was a great guy! He was a lot of fun & was "the life of the party". You are in my thoughts & prayers.

To the Family. Our family is sorry for your loss, and we know that God will listen to your prayers and give you the strength during this difficult time, like Psalms 102:17 says "He will certainly turn to the prayer of those stripped of everything, and not despise their prayer."

To the entire Bracone family. We are so sad to hear of the loss of Rob. Our sincere condolences and love are being sent your way. I will never forget growing up with Rob in "our neighborhood". We had lots of great times. Rob was always the life of the party. I always remembered how much he loved "Angie" from the Rolling Stones. And that harmonica. I didn't get to see him that much once we all started going our separate ways. But did have the pleasure of running into him in the past few...
