Not sure what to say?

Bob had a heart as big as a house. He was always so caring, even about people he didn't know. I was his good friend for 20 years. Like brothers and sisters we would fight and make up. I miss Bob, and he will be in my heart always.

Godspeed my friend, many laughs. Jimmie McGrath

Always enjoyed conversing with Bob and his fellow JCU alumnus John Baron at reunions and at alumni gatherings in Pittsburgh. Bob was a friendly and as cordial as one could be. He was very helpful to the JCU Alumni program over many years. RIP, Bob.

Sending Love

Bob was a wonderful man and I was saddened to hear of his passing. He was always putting a smile on everyone's faces with his stories and was so much fun to have around. Hugs and prayers to his family - quite the loss for all who knew him.

Bob was a great college classmate & fraternity brother who left a lasting impression. God Bless

Bob Rees was a great guy and a great friend. We met our freshman year at John Carroll University and became fast friends. When I moved to Pittsburgh several years after our graduation, we reconnected and created a ton of lifelong memories - golf, great dinners, trips back to college reunions. Bob will be missed very much. He was a great story teller, always making them quite humorous, and he could help me turn a sad day into a great day. He was one of the best. Rest in peace Bob.

To the Rees family My sympathy to you all. I met Bob thru meetup. He was a good guy
