From the bottom of my heart I thank everyone that came to pay tribute, say a prayer, a consoling word, sent flowers, and gave a handshake or a hug. I got my strength from all of you!

If a man is judged by his friends on that day Bob (Bobby D) D'Andrea was a King.

God Bless all of you.

Love his Mom,
Barbara D'Andrea
