Robert S. Neumann

My deepest condolences to Mrs Neumann, Chris and Leigh. Wow! This is hard to take. I could tell countless stories about your kindness. Instead I can use one word. Respected ! You were always more than my employer, you were my mentor,teacher, disciplinarian, therapist and always a friend! Rest easy Big Guy. Until we meet in the next chapter. Bruno

The brightest trendsetter in the building materials industry and my greatest mentor and inspirational figure is Mr Bob Neumann. Erie Materials success is the result of Mr Neumann´s commitment to being the best. I was in the business over 20 years and dealt with the "Who´s Who" in the industry. There´s only one Erie, Bless you all. It took a long time to earn Mr Neumann´s trust, he was always careful. The last time I saw him was at Turning Stone in Verona and we both had a good laugh...

I only had a chance to spend some time with Bob on a few occasions, but that is all it took to know he was exactly the person described in his obituary. Bob hardly knew me and yet generously shared his advice on my Skaneateles home project on several occasions. With kind regards, Paul Leone (Skaneateles and Palm Beach)

Great man who helped me in my early years. Can never forget his wisdom and kindness. Sally and Chris were just as kind. Can you start a business in heaven? Bob can.

To the Neumann family, So sorry for your loss.

Sally, Chris, Leigh and family Bob was instrumental in setting me up for a successful career as a contractor. He let me use his office phone before cell phones and gave me invaluable advice. He put up with the shenanigans of my crews and myself. He will surly be missed.

Chris and family so sorry for your loss. I worked for Erie Materials and it always felt more like a family than just a company. Thank you He will be so missed. Thoughts and prayers
