It is with such sadness that I extend my sympathy to the Lucenti family on the passing of my friend Bob. Music was our link and we shared many memories of singing together in high school,and college. He was a very dear and special friend to me. His brother Tony and mother and father were fine people. A generous , intelligent remarkable human being who shall never be forgotten. May the peace of Christ descend upon your family and remain with you always. He will be missed. Marilyn DiPasquale DeFrank

Saddened to hear of Bob's passing. We had a case together 10-12 years ago. He was a true gentleman and a pleasure to work with.

So sorry to hear this sad news. Played b-ball with Bob at EP and at various Chicago YMCAs during the summer breaks. He was a brilliant point guard, funny and intelligent. The Lucenti family is in our prayers. He will be missed.

Our condolences to the Lucenti family. I met Bob in Arhus, Denmark in 1989. I played with the Anient Regime from California. Bob was the coach and player from the Chicago Challangers. We became friends over the years and I played and coached some of his teams. Bob was overwhelmingly generous. What struck most was his commitment to basketball players. Bob would sponsor teams and take up to one hundred players. Bob would expose all of us to different cultures and people all over the world.

Bob Lucenti was FIRST CLASS 100%. We all will miss you Bob

Please accept my sympathy on your loss. I tried cases against Bob when I was an ASA at 26th Street and he has appeared in front of me on several cases after I became a judge. He was a worthy adversary, a good lawyer who took his responsibilities to his clients and the criminal justice system seriously, straight forward, and his word was his bond. More than that, as a person, he was a thoroughly decent human being. You were blessed to have him as a father and grandfather.

Laura, Bobby and Chris, your dad was a wonderful man. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. The Alley Family

Dear Bob and I were good friends. I typed his law school papers, sang in concert choir together not only in high school but with Triton College. We toured Europe with our choir, performed in musicals and shows together, and he was part of the entourage that was at my house all the time, laughing and talking until the wee hours of the morning. Oh Bob, God Bless you and Rest in Peace. Love to you in heaven.

it was my privilege to have known Bob for thirty plus years-its difficult to think of him in the past tense. he was intelligent, thorough, innovative,irreverent in a good way and an excellent criminal defense attorney. my sincerest condolences on your loss. sincerely, steve [email protected].

My sister, Mary Lee, and I were saddened to see Robert's obituary. Our mother, Lucille Larson, was close friends with his mother, Elaine, and I was a frequent babysitter for Robert and his brother, Anthony. Please accept our condolences.
