John Thinking about your dad and you - a great family man - today. Jim Irzyk

I grew up with the Cobb children, went to St. Justin School, Church and Northwest Catholic together. Played ball in the backyard and go into trouble together. Dr. and Mrs. Cobb treated me and all the other kids like family. Thank you for being there for us.

God Bless. As we pray for you, we also know you are praying/watching for others. You continue to be inspirational to so many.

Dr Cobb was a great person who helped many in the Hartford area. He opened his home to all that knew him. Thanks Doc for being there for me when I was growing up. Yvon Alexandre

So sad to learn of Dr. Cobb´s passing. I remember Mary and her brothers at Christmas Eve, when my Dad, Max brought us to your house to sing Christmas carols. Pat, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Love, Barbara

To all the Cobbs: my heart goes out to you on the passing of Dick. What a delightful, generous, warm and funny man he was. I first met him when I coached Mary and then Chris in basketball. Dick was one of the good parents, always warm and supportive with a fantastic sense of humor. He and I howled in delight after he told me that Chris, the second best outside shooter on the freshman basketball team, had tested out as legally blind with his glasses on! We nicknamed Chris "Sonar" after that! ...

John, haven´t seen you in years. Fred and I send condolences. Sounds like your dad had amazing life.

Our sincere sympathy to you Pat, and the entire Cobb family. We have so many fond memories of working at "Cobb and White" and Ct. Valley Rad. Group. We so enjoyed summers in R.I. which you generously shared with us. He encouraged our education goals and was an example for us to love our work. He was a huge influence on our lives. He will be missed. We wish you peace and comfort.

Dearest Pat, Our sincere condolences to you and your family. We remember Dick very well. Such a nice and well respected gentleman. We will keep you in our prayers.
