To Eileen, Rob, Amy and Mary Kate, we are all so saddened by the loss of your beloved husband and father! Bobby was just a good guy! You could always count on him for a smile and a funny retort! I grew up with him! He was more a big brother than an uncle to me, and we had our share of sibling spats, but I knew that I could always count on him when needed! Even throughout the past several years of pain and poor health, Bob had a joke or funny story to tell! He had a difficult childhood, losing both his parents by the age of 16, and he blossomed in the warmth of his own wife and family! His love for all of you is his most important legacy!

Aunt Eileen, Rob, Amy, Mary Kate, Andrew & family, it is hard to put into words the feelings felt when someone that you've known, admired, and respected your whole life passes. Uncle Bob was truly a special man, husband, father, grandfather, and uncle. We will fondly remember his quick wit, the 'all-knowing' look he would occasionally throw your way, and his contagious smile. He was loved by many and will be missed dearly. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. All of Our Love & Support, The Silveri family- Allen Robert & Jackie, AJ,Tom, Robby, Kelly, Jenny
