I knew Bob in college. It´s been many years since I´ve seen him, but I will never forget his vibrant smile and infectious laugh. I don´t ever recall a time when Bob wasn't joyful and kind. He was a special person and I am grateful to have known him. My deepest sympathies to all of you.

Dear David, REN, and Miriam,
Larry and I extend our sympathy to you all as we celebrate the life of a great man, friend and neighbor. I remember meeting Bob in the alley when Lorenzo was just a toddler. Bob´s heart was filled with love and compassion as he gave so much to others. You will have many wonderful memories of a life well lived. Although we no longer live in West Philly, out thoughts are with you through this difficult time.
