Yesterday

Bob was such a wonderful person I loved working with him, we were on the team that launched The River 92.5 and he was always such a pleasure to talk to. I have such warm memories of Bob and he will be missed greatly. He was a huge part of the legacy of that great station

Yesterday

The consummate pro who I had the privilege of working with at WXRV in Haverhill. His voice was golden and his listeners and all of us at the RIver felt a closeness to him. He was so approachable and always kind. Wishing his family the very best getting through this difficult time. Bob, rest in peace.

Bob helped train me at WXRV and I was a fellow announcer. He was such a pro with a fabulous voice and a very kind man with lots of stories! My condolences to his family.
