Dear Boo,
I just learned of Bobs passing 3/12/22. We grew up in Wakefield Bob on Franklin St. and me on Main St. We lived across from Crystal Lake where we constantly practiced his goaltending skills. Bob was a good friend. I was fortunate enough to see his one and only game with the Boston Bruins.
My deepest condolences Boo.
May Bob RIP.

Its hard to accept that bob has left us three years ago. I remember him so dearly. He was such a loyal friend and coworker. One year, he gathered money and bought tickets to the broadway show Cats for me and my family as a special gift. He was so hard-working snd caring. I miss him. When I see his photo, I remember his laugh. Keep us in your watchful eye Bob until we join you in our after life. Love, Paulette

To Bob's family: I worked with Bob for many years and always found him to give me great advice on all our HR issues. When he decided to retire, I was distraught, not for him but for me. I was losing a great adviser and a wonderful friend. We kept in touch now and then but not enough! I want to tell you how much I appreciated him and how much I mourn his passing. I wish all of you the knowledge that he is still with you in your hearts.

May the God of all comfort strengthen the family during this time of deep sorrow. Those who pass on, God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes. My sincerest condolences. Psalms 116:15.
