OH BOB. I AM SO SO SORRY. I SAW HOW YOU CARED FOR TOBY. MY LOVE TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. MEG AVERETT

Bob, My heart is broken to hear of Toby´s passing. I know you were a tireless support and your love for him was seen in your dedication to his life. Sending my deepest condolences and love, Holly (Barber) Chiodo

Dear Bob and family, I have the most special memory of Toby when he was about 11 years old. Toby had asked for a three piece business suit so he could be an executive. Bob asked some of his friends to "accidentally " be the same restaurant for this lunch. I forgot the name of the restaurant but I can picture it. In Toby walked, handsome, very well-suited, confident, and proceeded to greet the people just like his dad did. He was charming and fun, and this memory always makes me smile. ...

Bob and Family, I knew Toby through my sister Blessing and our shared time camping in the Uintah mountains. My favorite memory of Toby is a crystal clear recollection of running down a beautiful forest trail with Toby at Moose-horn lake shortly before his tragic car accident. Toby was such an intelligent, dynamic and resilient soul. I really appreciate your family (and so enjoyed bar backing at Green street during my college/ROTC years). Your family is involved in so many amazing memories...

bob and family -- We are sending our heartfelt sympathies to you at this incredibly tough time. All our love -- Gary & Paulette Birdsall

Toby took me to our prom. Although I´ve lost the photo he was a friendly addition to the Class of 88!

Slingerland Family, I am an old friend of Rob's from the 80's - running partner, basketball teammate at Greek Orthodox Church, and more... Rob and I enjoyed many a great time in those years, especially at Green Street. Rob and I have lost touch, but I know we both consider each other cherished friends. I am so deeply sorry for you on Toby's passing. I probably met Toby once or twice, but not sure. The obituary is beautiful. Thank you Bob for taking such good care of Toby...

Bob and Rob, Toby was an amazing man who was a major influence in my life. He attacked challenges and lived a full life, but he didn't do it alone. I was impressed by your family's ability to be there for him and how you put your own lives and careers on hold to help him live his best life. He was an inspiration and strength to all and he will be missed.

I had the privilege to be Toby´s babysitter at a young age. He was a super fun boy. He had a lot of energy. He was adorable. There will always be a special place in my heart for Toby and Betty.
