Still miss Father Bob so much; in my prayers. Hope Fr. Bob caught up with Mom and Toni. Are they making you Hamburgers "Bingo Burgers" in heaven?

So many St. Adalbert memories growing up. You are the best (Uncle Bob). Thank you for everything but most of all thank you for YOU. Rest easy now and I am sure there is a PTA meeting with drinks happening. Give Mom and Dad my love. Miss You All! God Bless You!

Fr. Bob. I go back many years with him. I knew him from St. Josephat's in Manyaunk. Mater of fact, he married my wife Dottie and me, there. He always had a smile and words of wisdom or encouragement. When, he was sent on his next mission it was at St. Marys in Conshohocken. We followed him there and became members. Shortly, after joining, we became Eucharistic Ministers at St. Marys. Fr. Bob said it would be for about 3 years. 3 years went on for 18 years. I also was on their Finance committee for 14 years. The best was his friendship over the years. We enjoyed Fr. Bob coming for many years and blessing our Easter Table. Fr. Bob would also honor us and our neighbors at Christmas time. I had a Christmas open house, Fr. Bob would always honor us with his presence and special blessing. We also went a few times for mass on a few weekdays at St. Bede's. We always enjoyed our time, at our house or out to a restaurant. Fr. Bob was also good friends of my deceased parents. We will have him in our thoughts and prayers.

Fr. Bob you were more than a friend you were part of our family. We worked with you all through your time at St. Adalbert's. You had my Mom's funeral Mass and teased about my Mom organizing things in heaven and making "Bingo Burgers" in heaven. Thank you Msgr. for all your work on earth. May God surround you with His arms and grant you peace. Say hi to you Mom for me.
