Robert A. "Bobby" Osterman

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Dear Bobby:

I cannot deal with the fact that you are no longer with us. My heart is broken. You were such a wonderful caring man and a good friend. You made an impression on everyone you came in contact with. You were a hard working man, who came across as a larger than life person, but you had a heart of gold.

When I came to visit you the night before you left us, I could see that you were in pain and you were suffering. I held your hand so very tightly, not...

"Big Bob O"
Growing up "Down the Hill" would have never been the same without Bob O. He was a wonderful father figure, friend, and mentor to so many of us "down the hillers". He had the incredible ability to put a smile on our faces without even saying a word. He's Big Bob O!. I feel so very fortunate to have known such a truly amazing individual.
Carol, Rob, Brian, Danni, and families.. I love you all..you are in my prayers and thoughts. Just remember you will always be in his...

Aunt Carol& Family,
I was lucky to know him through chance of being friends with Andrea and Michelle for so long. I consider you all family as much as my own. For not being related I still have had the pleasure of sharing many holidays,our trip to Las Vegas,carving halloween pumpkins,to just stopping by for coffee with andrea.He always had a warm smile and a friendly face that lit up.Not everyone is so lucky to have an Uncle Bobby in their family but because of all of your warmth and...

Uncle Bobby was always a role model in everything. Meeting him as a teenager I envied his marriage and his and aunt carols welcoming ways letting us hang and sleep over, then watching him grow with his children so proud and always a participating parent in PAL and those crazy cars at the track, camping, horizons and so much more. Being a speaker in MANY different programs so that the people listening could better themselves or their loved ones. This man knew how to get through and deal...

Only a couple of days have gone by since your passing, and it still doesn't seem real. The void in our lives, however, has hit us like a ton of bricks. I only wish i had the chance to tell you face to face exactly how you've impacted my entire life.
Every girl dreams to have this wonderful relationship with their father, and unfortunately for me I wasn't lucky enough to have that; that is until, I was welcomed into your heart and home by you and Mom.
Since that day, I have been...

"uncle Bobby"
He was every ones Uncle Bobby as Aunt Carol is every ones aunt carol. Together they raised three wonderful children. Their doors were always opened to everybody they knew and that were family. I was lucky to have had them as good neighbors never knowing I would be apart of their wonderul family one day, when they introduced me to my husband jimmy. Which leads to my two sons to be blessed to have had uncle Bobby in thier lives and always in their memories.

ABOUT MY FATHER:

I really dont even know where to begin, my father was so many things to us. He was the "foundation" of our family. To Rob,Danielle,and myself he was a GIANT, he was larger than life. A great provider, role model, boss, and friend, but most of all he was one half of the greatest parents one could ever have. To my mother he was her best friend. For 36 years they laughed and cryed together, had their ups and downs, but they took it all in stride and they never let us...
