Not sure what to say?

Bob was a great friend from boyhood on. A kind and deep thinker who could converse with great knowledge in history, science, mechanics and the Norwalk sound. Seeing him on the islands always meant I´d get a great tale of buried treasure or at least buried history. Always thoughtful and ready to share from his possessions, knowledge and heart. Miss you Bobby.

I remember meeting him when he worked for Bonnadio. As I got to know him he was a kind soul Ill never forget. He always asked me when & where Id be playing open mic. He always told me " you sound great kid"!

Sue & family, We are so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Charlie & Bob were long time friends and even went to Sweden together. Charlie suffered a significant stroke in Aug 2023 so we've been trying to get back to a somewhat "normal" life but it's been a struggle. We had no idea that Bob passed away, my Gosh...This is unbelievable. Charlie was very upset when I told him about Bob's passing. If there's anything we can do, please don't hesitate to let us know. Charlie is getting better but...

Always liked hanging out with him at Cranbury Park. His take on most things was hilarious. RIP Byx.

Thank you for being there for me as a little kid to a grown adult Always remembering My dadin the best light is was an honor knowing you and I will be their in spirit Tell dad n mom I said n I'll see you again 1 day

A group of us went skiing decades back. Bob (Byx) skied well, and was a memorable part of the after-party at a pub in Brookfield. I believe that was not long before his tragic accident. Although understandably angry, he wouldn´t let the loss of a limb stop him from being involved in what he was naturally good at. So Sad to hear of his passing. Christian Tangard
