We miss bob more and more everyday. He was with us constantly and we thought of him as family. He was great man. Giving and kind. We never thought god would take him from us so soon. But he is missed so bad. There will never be another like Bob.

I was very saddened to read about the death of my childhood friend, Bobby Cove. Butchie (as everyone called him then) and I grew up together in the May St. area of Worcester, Ma. We spent many happy years playing as young boys. I have spoken often with Paula Holly (a mutual childhood friend) and we always wondered what Bobby was doing since he moved from May St. I read that Bobby had children and grandchildren and my sympathies go out to them. Bobby was a great friend.
