ROBERT NORTHROP

Bobby was one of my most favorite people in all the world - I felt impossibly lucky to have such a fun and interesting brother, another point of thankfulness for us all when his mother and my father were married so many years ago! When I moved to Colorado, he and Dianne came to visit me, and made sure to go to the Little Bear in downtown Evergreen, a family friendly bar with a reputation that had spread all the way to California, and which is still humming today. We called each other the...

Bobby was a wonderful brother, son, father and friend. He served his country with honor and pride, giving much and getting little in return. Serving in Vietnam, as did many, was costly and at great sacrifice to himself but he always forged ahead, and never stopped being a gentle and caring man. Bobby may you find peace and reap the rewards you so deserve. P.S. thanks for letting the Kid use your car. We looked so cool! Sorry about the emergency brake and clutch!

I remember seeing Bobby when he would come to DC to visit his mother and Pat. I always thought it was so wonderful when he and Blake would be able to go to Solomon's and spend time together. From seeing photos and videos from his last months, it seemed he was enjoying life until the end - especially the fishing trip he and Tom took, and the visits to the waterfront. Rest in Peace, Bobby.

I first met Bobby after our care management company was contacted by his sister Pat regarding his failing health. I found Bobby in the hospital, very ill and I was not so sure that he was going to make it through that weekend. As it would be Bobby accepted me as his care manager and go to guy, he began to trust in me and though it wasnt an easy journey to his recovery, it was a rewarding one. We finally were able to see Bobby stabilize and settle in at a nursing facility and that is where...

Bobby was a teenager when I first met him and his 3 year-old little sister, Pat. I remember his patience and kindness when Pat and I would dare to wander into his bedroom uninvited. I didnt have much contact with him in later years, but I can tell from the other guest book entries that his warmth and kindness endured and brought happiness to those who knew and loved him. Rest in peace, dear Bobby.

I enjoyed having Bobby as my step brother and remember his visits with my parents. I also remember my visit with him and his family when he lived in Manhattan Beach. He and my husband shared their common backgrounds as soldiers in Vietnam. It was so nice that my sister, Emily, and he were particularly close and that she was able to be with him at the end. Pat was wonderful in finding the help he needed to ensure a good quality of life. And how nice that he was able to go fishing, one of his...

I remember when Bobby visited us in Coronado when I was young. He was a gentle soul and a real kind man. I talked to him on the phone years later on the phone and I know he placed his faith in our loving Savior. We miss dear Bobby, but are comforted, knowing we will meet him again in heaven, the place of no more tears, sorrow or suffering.

I love you and I miss you, Uncle Bobby!
