So sorry to hear of Rob's passing. I will always remember him as the first 'love of my life' when we kids on Dartmouth Court. Playing Hide & Seek, swiping tomatoes from the neighbor's garden, just general hanging out with the kids. We were a close-knit neighborhood, as I went from elementary school all the way thru High School with David and Georgie. My sympathy and prayers are with the family, I know the pain you are going thru, as 7 of my 9 siblings have passed away too. Rest in Peace, Rob.

I am sad to hear of Bob's passing. At one time, I would go into the Mobil station twice a week, and Bob and I had some fun conversations. I even got to talk to his wife, Judith, once on his phone. I grew up in Waltham and had met her many many years ago. It truly is a small world. I just know all the wonderful memories will be a blessing for the whole family at this difficult time. Peace to you all.
