I worked with Bob for many years at AT&T. He was always very helpful and he was a great teacher. He made my life easier during my early days in the Cost group.
During all our time at work I could tell that his family was most important to him, as he would always share the goings on of the family with me.
I offer my deepest regrets on Bob's passing.

September 23, 2014

My sincere condolence to the Lobosco family for the loss of your beloved one. May the God of all comfort and peace be with you during this difficult time.

Dear Bonnie & family ~
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. I worked for Bob at Basking Ridge and he was a wonderful, happy guy who always had a smile & he was a great boss, too. We recall how he loved to ski & he gave us the best advice on how to save for our first home. He made a lasting impression on us! God bless him and all of you. May his memory be eternal.
With deepest sympathy ~
