Think of Bob often. We graduated from NHHS together. Looking through his last texts to me he was talking about how much he loved bowling, going to grands baseball games, helping his granddaughter move, helping his kids decorate for Halloween with a spooky doll that moved, talked and gave out candy and making Polish perogies for Christmas Eve dinner. He was such a kind hearted man as evidenced when he told me he enjoyed driving his car as it gave him quiet time to pray for all the people in his life. I miss him! ❤

I graduated from New Hartford High School with Bob. Since he moved to Georgia and I also live here we were able to get together for lunch frequently. He had a great sense of humor, adored being close to his family, going to grandkids sporting events and loved his involvement with antiques. He had an upbeat personality and just enjoyed life! My prayers and thoughts go out to the family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

So sorry to learn of the passing of Bob. Knew him well at the Yahnundasis and played many rounds of golf with him. Was a great guy and always fun to be around. Some day we'll meet again. RIP my friend.
