To the DeMalia family, sorry to hear about Bobby. We have been lucky to have known Bobby for 50 years. His mom and my mom were neighbors so I got a head start on knowing what a great guy Bobby was. A loss to the DeMalia family and a loss to Grafton Hill. Tony and Lyn Nardella and Family.

Dear Pops (Poppi) As I write this I cry, for I didn't just loose my father I also lost my best friend.! Going to the Boulevard diner to eat many of times, just hanging out, and all the nights plowing together.! There will be no one else to bust my chops and make fun of me with such dry humor . It breaks my heart and there's an emptiness inside of me.! I will miss the phone calls , and long talks we'd have.! Hanging out at your house back in the day. When we used to go to the races and I would watch you race the meanest stroker that no one could ever beat.! I will always keep that bike and treasure it for eternity. I will be lost this winter with no one to yell at me and tell me I don't know how to plow. Lol you used to love to push my buttons and I always gave it right back to you. I love you so much, and I will miss you even more.! I will see you again when it is my time to fly with the angels. Ride hard and stay free, you will surely be missed.
Your son Hollywood

My Thoughts & Prayers are with you all during this difficult time. I know a lot of his family and the many many friends would always call him... "The old man." Then we knew who everyone was talking about... But I called him Mr. DeMalia! He would always look at me with this strange look as if really, Mr. DeMalia! Wow!!! Nobody calls me Mr. Anything... We both would laugh. He put a smile on my face every time. Well, Mr DeMalia... You will truly be missed "Old Man."

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die." Until the day we meet again... My Friend!

To the entire Demalia family, Please accept my heartfelt condolences. I had a lot of fun at car shows and cruise nights with Bobby, Not to mention dueling 440's going thru the 1/4 mile sucking in the cool night air and sending it screaming out the blazing hot chrome exhaust tips. What a rush! Diamond D may be gone, BUT... the Legend lives on!!! REST IN PEACE my friend... REST. I will miss you.
