Bob will be greatly missed by all who knew him. I valued our client relationship over the last 20+ years and was honored that he and Rose Marie sought my counsel in their business affairs. May all of the Montani family be consoled knowing that he is at peace. Philip E. San Filippo

Rose Marie and Family,
I just heard the sad news of cousin Bob's passing by email from my sister Aurelia. My heart goes out to you, your sons and their families. Though I live in California and we have not been in touch for many years, I have fond memories of all of us together in our younger, pre-marriage days back in New Jersey. I will keep you and Bob in my heart and memories, and hope that time will bring you some comfort in your great loss. Sincerest condolences from me and my husband Hoag. --Rosemary (Montani) Schmele
