I grew up with him played on a lot of ball teams together a lot of neighborhood pick up games.. his mom would take us to games his Dad would showed us pitching skills great people... he was such a nice guy treated everyone with respect!!! I also worked on jobs where he was working.. it’s just very sad as I had just sat down with him at North Pt talking about our health it was long after that that he had passed to Jan & family

I just can't believe a husband, father, grandfather , son in law, brother in law, uncle , friend is gone from our family. He was so many things to many different people... Bob was like a person that was just always there, no matter what. Last time I saw him was this summer for a Friday night fish fry at Giovanni's. we all had a good time... Little did any of us know, it would be the last time we would all be together... I will forever miss Bob but I will also do anything I can to help you, Jan, during this heartbreaking time of sadness in your and John and Ellie's life... My love to all of you....
...may he forever be an angel on my sister's shoulder. His death has turned our world upside down.

Jan and John,
What a wonderful guy! I enjoyed Bob every time we met. On the Handball court, at the Bash, and at different places we saw each other, Nicholson's, out to eat, etc. Always a gentleman, just like your father was. You picked a good one.
I know he will be missed, but I also know the memories of him are GREAT!
With lots of love, Marty

Jan- What can you say about such a wonderful man and your soul mate. I remember when you started dating him and all us nurses would look out the window just to get a glimpse of him! I remember your first home on the river and the party you had where Bob played Beach Boys songs all night. And then there were the nights I called to talk to you and you weren't home but Bob always had plenty to talk to me about. And then there were the times he was working at Swedes and I would be dragging in in the morning and there was Bob, always smiling and ready to talk.And he never failed to ask how I was doing. I am so sorry for your loss.Take comfort in the happiness he brought in your life as well as all the lives he touched. Love-Kathy

My condolences to the Foust Family. I knew Mr. Foust from working for my Dad and brother at Schmeling Construction. He was always so nice to me when I would see him in the office or on job sites. I even still have a book case that he made me when I went off to college the same year as John. Both my Dad and my brother always had wonderful things to say about him. He will be greatly missed.
