Jeannie & family, So aware of your loss and the sadness it brings. Bobby was a warm and caring man. We co-sponsored Al-ateen so many years ago, & I came to know and admire him very much. He and you included Larry in so much of your lives. Larry was blessed in that friendship. Now Bobby can be his true strong self once again, & hang out with Larry!!! With many warm thoughts for each of you.

To Jeannie and all of Bob's children, family and friends:

My family and I were deeply saddened to hear of Bob's death. The last few years were a terrible struggle for him and those he loved who had to sit, pray and wait. The battle is over and he ran a good race.

Take comfort in knowing there will be no more weeping or gnashing of teeth and he is in a place where every tear will be wiped away. Only joy and happiness will be his for all eternity.

Our prayers go with Bob and those he loved and left behind. May he Rest in Peace.
