Not sure what to say?

How s it possible that the world kept turning when you died. My heart misses you and life just isn´t the same without you in it. I hope your doing good and that your happy I will carry on until we meet again my love

I knew Bob room NFA and living in Preston. The cute boy on the school bus, the funny days at Lopresti Farm, McDonalds was a big deal when you're 15. Times of fun with friends, outdoor camp fires, concerts, Freedom Jam was great. And who can forget " the boathouse." Hadn't seen Bob in many years. I'm happy to learn he loved deeply and has a wonderful family. Gone too soon, but a comfort to know he is now with God. My condolences to his family.

At times it feels like your still with me and at times your not. There´s not a day that passes that I don´t think of you. I miss your embrace, our ling walks and talks. I know when the sunshine peeks through the clouds it´s you saying hello and I love you. Miss you Bob... so very much love lori

You came to me like a summer breeze and brought such a depth of love. We shared the Sox, and seaside walks from one end of the bay to the other. In times of pain your hand in mine claimed and gave such sweet consolation. For The days we had I´ll always be glad and soak in loves surrender. God above has called you love and so we say goodbye. But as I stand by the shore I can´t ignore the sun still in my eyes. For I know one day I´ll see that beautiful smile ,eyes bright with loves...

I can´t think of The Boston Red Sox and body surfing without thinking of my Uncle Bobby. From the time I was a little girl I´d spend the almost every spring going to a game with my dad and uncle, and the summer was spent at the Santa Cruz beaches body surfing with the whole family. He always knew how to laugh and laugh well, I will miss that sound very much. My father, my uncle, my cousin (Michael), and my son all carry the middle name Patrick. To the Patrick boys!

Mara and I will miss you much, Dad. Life just won’t be the same.

I never knew Uncle Bobby without a smile, a pleasant conversation, and a thoughtful response. His was an easy charm, and a kindness that could be felt in his every word. He will be deeply missed

Bobbie, You will be missed so much by so many. You were the best brother. I'll always remember the King Tides, fossils and prime rib, your humor and kind hugs. Chris
