Not sure what to say?

To the Ely family. Our prayers are with you all during this time of sorrow. Bob was the "gentle giant". Always kind words were said and a smile on his face. He will be greatly missed.........

Deepest sympathy to Lynn and the girls. The loss of my childhood friend has deeply saddened my heart. I know we will all be together again in the gardens of heaven Jody Zingarelli

I'm very saddened to hear of his passing. We were friends back in the day and he always held a special spot in my heart. My heart is now broken and I am very sad for his family and all they will miss now that he is gone. He was a wonderful person and I will miss him greatly even though we haven't seen each other in years.

Love you Bob,
Arlene Harrison (Bell)

We are truly saddened to hear of his passing, our prayers are that this wonderful family find comfort in the love of one another

We were so very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with Lynne and all of his family. Jonna Koellhoffer and family

I knew Bob ever since we moved to West Caldwell. Bob was one of those quiet gentle neighbors who would come to help if you needed him. Just the day before his passing, there he was, sitting on his front porch resting quietly and looking content. This is the way I want to remember him.

Bob was a great guy. His loss will be felt by of course his family but also by all who knew Bob and worked with him. Rest in Peace and condolences to his family.

I can't remember a time when Bob was not a big part of my life. He was sort of an unofficial little brother along with Russ and Ray. Well, maybe little isn't the right term.

I am beyond heartbroken along with my family over his passing. He was such a good man, and a loving husband and father. His smile was infectious, and the thought of him leaving Lynne and his girls behind is simply devastating.

I pray his soul is kayaking across that big Thompson Lake in Heaven.
God, this...

Bob was known to our family for 21 years.

He will be remembered as a wonderful, kind man, who made himself available to all.

Bob was an intelligent, confident, cordial and warmhearted man, in every sense of the word.

He will be incredibly missed by all of us.

At this time we would like to extend our deepest condolences to Lynne, daughters Dana and Chelsea, and all members of his immediate and extended family.

In deepest sympathy,
The O'Beirne Family
