Robert L. Gross

Pat and I are deeply saddened by the unexpected passing of Bobby. I was introduced to Bobby decades ago by his brother-in-law, Scotty, who was also my dear friend. I always enjoyed our conversations during my infrequent trips to Long Island in the years that followed. Bobby was both compassionate and religious, endearing qualities that made him well-suited for his profession. He was especially dedicated to his family, whom he often proudly spoke of in glowing terms. A true patriarch, who supported his family thru both the good and bad times. When it fell to Pat and me to make funeral arrangements for my in-laws, Bobby was the person we turned to. The comfort and professionalism he provided was immeasurable. Bobby was one of the last familiar faces from my days on Long Island, and I´m sure going to miss him.

Love, hugs and prayers on your journey without Bob. It will not be easy but with our Lord all things are possible. Every day is a new day we approach with grateful hearts of what we have had. Alex and I were married 61 years when he passed. Grateful for the memories but still miss him but God is good. He never leaves me.
