My condolences to Bob's family. I had the pleasure of meeting Bob many years ago as a young lawyer. Bob's sense of humor and commitment to great trial work will be what I remember most. May he rest in peace.

So very sad to just learn of the passing of my old fellow "Double Domer," law school house-mate and the dear friend who introduced me to my wife 50 some years ago, and graciously stood up for our wedding. Remembering all those good times many years past, sorry we lost touch over the years. Rest in peace, Bob. Condolences to his wife Tracy and family.

RIP old ND friend.

A warm, friendly, funny, self-effacing guy whom I met when we were all just young lawyers via his late pal and mine, Mike Ditore. RIP.

I am also an old friend of Bob as my husband and he were good friends at Notre Dame and Bob helped us out at times since we had two children while in school there! He was known as "Uncle Bobby Diddle De" as he would bounce the children on his knees! Always a good friend and will be truly missed. Thankful for his friendship, laughter and kindness and will be truly missed.

God bless him and I am sure he will. Always a great positive spirit. RIP BRO !
