Dear Bobby's family: I probably haven't seen Bobby since HS, but I will always remember his gregarious nature, wonderful (booming) laugh, athleticism, and so handsome. My sister (Cindy) and I also thought he and Kathy Zubal are probably having a great time right now. However, I am so sorry for your loss of Bobby. Such a sad time. Thoughts and prayers to you all. Sandy Vuagniaux Lamar.

Remembering lining up next to Bob for years while on the Montclair swim team and promptly getting beat, but then making up for it on the dynamic relay team with him as the anchor. Fond memories with that, school, etc. RIP Bob. Condolences to all. .
