I remember Bob Masino well, being the same age, serving in the national guard for 20 years and in newspaper management 40 years, we had a lot in common. Wish we could have socialized more and not lived so far apart. May the Lord Bless you.

Dee, our sincere condolences. As a Hall of Fame LtG in Kiwanis, all knew he was one of my favorites and for good reason! I remember his calls before a board meeting asking what he should wear and we would jokingly discuss his jewelry. And I see from his photo, that he always got it right! What a wonderful gentleman with a tremendous heart and passion for Kiwanis and service. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My condolences to you. Dee, you and Bob touched my heart in different ways. You as someone I look up to and Bob as the keeper of Princess (the cat at MidCity). It shows his kindness and love; I will always keep fond memories of Bob.

Bob is in no more pain or suffering and walking on streets of gold and picking out his mansion and waiting for the rest of his family to meet him in heaven

Dee, we are so sorry for your loss but remember those times we traveled together for Kiwanis, especially to Florida, where he arranged for that limo to take us to dinner. What a great time we had. Bob was a good leader, concerned about the community and kids and a good friend of mine and several other club members. He will be missed by many.

Bob was ever gracious, putting me at ease and making me laugh. He never lost his sense of humor. He and his wife, Dee, have been good friends, continually hospitable and generous. I met them through the usher ministry at Faith Center and am the richer for it.
