Thinking of you, Lucy! Bob is buried right across from my mother-in-law, so I visit him often. Sending love, Cathy Tuccillo.

Robert was one of the nicest gentleman that I have ever known. When I first started work in sales at L.R. Smith Inc., Robert was the first to welcome me to the team and the one that would always lend assistance and teach me the ropes in the business. A kind man that I am sure will be missed by many. My most sincere condolences to the family.

I am deeply saddened to read about Bob's passing. I have had the wonderful opportunity to have made his acquaintance at the Southington YMCA. He was always eager to share stories of his youth and growing up in Southington, a town he was very proud of. He will be missed by all at the Y, and the locker room that he presided over will miss his presence. May God welcome him to heaven with opened arms.
