Bobby was a couple of grades ahead of me at St. Cecilia in the days when all families knew one another. I remember when Bobby's mother broke her leg and Bobby, who was in the eighth grade at the time, drove the family to early Sunday morning Mass-----before he had his driver's license. Bobby was a true gentleman. May his presence remain with you in the many memories you have. God bless each of you. You are remembered in prayer.
