I'm so sad at the loss of Bobby and his brother Michael that I feel as if the best of our family is always leaving us way to soon. I know we will be up there in Heaven all together some day and it will be as if we were always together. Loosing my wonderful nephews has given me a sorrow that is undeniably too painful to express. He was the same age as my mom, Bob's grandmother, when she died of cancer 38 years ago. When the hell are we going to cure this dreadful disease? I pray for our...

It's odd that this email should pop up this morning because on my way to work, I was enjoying the breeze coming in the window and I suddenly thought of Bob. I spoke to him, in my mind, and asked him to protect all of us who love him. He was a protector of people while here on this earth. Why not think of him doing the same in Heaven? Doing so, without any stress or worry for himself. Only love and caring. Sandy G.

I am a long time forgotten 2nd cousin to this wonderful young boy Bobby. We spent many of vacations in our summer homes in Candlewood Hills, Conn. We were very young and liked each other very much and I was always saddened when we had to return back to the city. I have not been in contact with Cousins as you can tell for MANY YEARS, but this news has prompted me to do so. My love and heart goes out to all, especially Tony and Fran . I will remember Bobby always and I pray that you find...

Our sincerest condolences to Bob's family. We only met you for a short time in Mexico 2009, where we got married, we really enjoyed meeting you and martha, and even though it was a brief meeting, you left a lasting impression on our hearts.It was a real pleasure to have met you, god bless BOB x

Bob I wondered why I was thinking of you so much this week. We met in Ramapo College. We had really changed eachothers lives for the better. I loved hearing stories about your daughters they were the best and you would light up. You and I kept each other sane and made eachother laugh as we went through rough times. When I had cancer you showed up at Sloan Kettering and always told me I looked great. You are always on my mind. You were a great friend and had the best friendship. Praying for...

I played high school football with Bob at Northern Valley Regional HS in Demarest. He was one year ahead of me and was a tough, tenacious player. I remember reading about his arrest of the Red Army terrorist on the NJ Turnpike. I was filled with pride having been his teammate. He made our Country safer and saved countless lives. He was a true Patriot and truly one of the finest graduates our high school has seen since its inception. God Bless his family.

Thanks Bobby for being a friend all these years. When things were bad, you stood up and made your voice known. Words will never express what you have meant to me. Until we meet again. Rest in peace.

Bob,
May you rest in eternal peace and look down upon us with your everlasting smile. You are a trooper's trooper and a man I had the privilege to call a true "friend". I will miss you.
