We will miss Bob very much; he was our "go-to" guy whenever we needed a helping hand. I don't think there was anything Bob couldn't do. He was a good friend and neighbor. Our deepest sympathy to Joyce, Denise, Colleen and Katelyn.

Dear Joyce and family
I was deeply saddened to hear of Bob's passing. I will always fondly remember him from the years we all worked together at Raytheon and for the Rhode Island clamboils held at your home in Naples. They were wonderful times. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
