ROBERT P. SILVERSTEIN

Bob and his (now late) brother Roy were childhood chums and lifelong friends of my late father, Phil Friedman. I knew Bob and Roy from their retired days, when they would occasionally stop in to chew the fat with my old man at his 5 & 10 store in Logan Square back when you saw more scads of graffiti than cinnamon scones.

My deepest sympathies and condolences to Robert Silverstein's family. May the Lord give you the strength during this difficult time.

My sincere condolences to all his family. He will be dearly missed. Bobby was always my "fun loving, and crazy uncle." He was always smiling and happy.

He was always wild uncle Bobby to me. I remember once Bobby was at our house in Glencoe and we had recently just closed our outdoor pool for the summer. It was drained a little but there was plenty of water still in it except the water was green. Bobby changed into his suit in our garage and it was a cold day and then proceeded to jump off the diving board into the green pool. I was pretty young but I always thought he was so much fun. You will be missed!

"Bobby" was a life long friend of mine. During our childhood he lived around the corner from me in Albany Park. We went to Hibbard grammar school together as well as Roosevelt High School, and I counted him in as one of my best friends. We spent many a day and evening together along with others in the neighborhood. We parted close contact when we went to college, but we never lost track of one another. As late as last year he would occasionally come to my home and we would go for a walk...

My deepest condolences to all his Family.
Bob was a great person, a good friend always and a fond traveler.
In travels and cruises he was always the spirit of the party, his wide knowledge, wisdom and wit entertained us and we loved it.
It will be with much nostalgia to remember those times now.
