Bobby was a network systems analyst. He was a graduate of Liberty High School, Class of 1986 and a 1991 graduate of Villa Julie College. Bobby was happiest when he was coaching and cheering on his children's soccer teams, relaxing and shelling at the beach, hiking and spending time outdoors, biking, taking pictures and enjoying downtime listening to his favorite music. He especially enjoyed spending time with his family and close friends. Surviving in addition to his parents and wife are son Riley A. Morsberger (15); daughter Isabella F. Centofanti (11); sister and brother-in-law Nancy and Bill O'Neill; brother Steven Centofanti; father-in-law and mother-in-law Bill and Joyce Yanke; sister-in-law and brother-in-law Robyn and Brad Gilden; sister-in-law Lori Yanke.
