As a current junior at St. John´s University in Queens, I remember freshman year when I had Dr. Tomes for history. He was a great professor and truly cared about his students. Sending all of my love and prayers to the family <3

Thinking of you old friend, as you travel that stairway to heaven. My deepest condolences to Mary and family. Bobby was a wonderful guy and I'm lucky I had the pleasure to know him. He will be missed.

He was a great guy with a very friendly personality. He laughed easily and made others around him feel very comfortable. He was a highly educated professor and accomplished musician and yet very down to earth. He held a lot of love in his heart for his friends and family. I always looked forward to events and family gatherings in which he was in attendance. He had the ability to light up a room with presence. It was a privilege to know him. We will all miss him.
