I am sorry for the family's loss. Your dad had a way of making me feel as if I knew him forever and made me feel comfortable in his presence. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I am sorry to hear about Bob. I am a voice from the past and when I met him I was 17 and he was the star center at San Jose State. He was one of my heroes then and was so gracious to treat me like I was something and inspired me to have high goals and play football even though I was not a big person. He was an excellent football coach and a very good person. I always felt I was in the presence of a special person and he made us feel that way too.
My condolences to the Pifferini Family.
Chris Pappas.

First off Coach Piff was an honest upfront man that told you how things rolled.
Had a dry humor to him that was unmatched. Top notch tough nosed Coach from the years past and will be missed.
Condolences to his family.

Bob was a great man who had a keen sense of humor and incredible stories of his football years. He served as a marshal at Delaveaga Golf Course, where I work as a greens keeper.
He will be missed but not forgotten. My condolences and love to the family.

Uncle Bob was an extraordinary man! He accomplished soooo much in his life. It was always fun to spend time with him and Auntie Gaynell at Brentwood Lake, Twain Harte lake, the cabins, in Los Altos and in Scotts Valley. We send our deepest condolences and love to the Pifferini family.
