Not sure what to say?

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

We were so sorry to hear of Bobby's passing..We remember him fondly from our days at Kings Court Way- loving sports even then! Our thoughts and every prayer are with you all at this time!

Bob, and family...I am so saddened to hear of your passing at such a young age. I did not have the opportunity to meet you. But living in the Twin Cities, I saw your broadcasts.

One thing i know for sure is that you were well-loved, no doubt by your family members, but also by Tiffany. Tiffany is one of the most special people in this world. Knowing that the two of you were together, I am so sorry for the collective loss of you and Tiffany of your love together on this earth. God...

Mary Ellen & Family:

My deepest sympathy for your loss.

I had not seen Bob in many years, but was always glad to hear of his successes. I have fond memories of working with him at Channel 13, and of his uncommon kindness toward others. My sympathies to the family. Bob was given special mention at the the Channel 13 reunion just last night - many people are saying a prayer for him this Sunday morning.

Bob Will truly be missed here in Minneapolis. I had the honor to exchange emails with him a year ago and he was a down to earth person. He lived life to the fullest in his short time with us. May his memories live on within his family and friends.

"Aunt Mary Ellen", my condolences to you and your entire family. Although it had been a very long time since I'd seen "Bobby", I remember all of the fun times Bobby, Robin, and I had as kids. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love, Stephanie

I had the pleasure of meeting Bob over 20 years ago. He and my husband Kevin Ussia were great friends. I always thought of Bob as the gentle giant. He was the kindest, humblest person I have ever known. Whenever Bob was in Rochester, he would always make sure he'd stop for a visit. I made sure I had fresh sauce on for him, he enjoyed it every time. Before we married, Kevin and I went to Kentucky, Ohio and Philly to see Bob, he was happy in all those places, but after seeing so much written...

Mary Ellen,
My family has you and your family in our hearts and prayers.

Always,
Keith/Sheila
