I remember... 2 six year old boys racing up and down Union St. trying to determine who's sneakers were faster... they quickly became the best of friends. I remember... 2 young boys joining the Cub Scouts together...learning to swim at the YMCA together... spending the summers riding bikes, playing baseball, swimming at the beach (and your Aunt Linda's house), joining the bowling league... always together. Like brothers, we literally grew-up together and he was as much a part of my family as I was his... and my entire family is sad to hear the news. Life is not always kind, nor is it fair, but sometimes you get lucky, like I did, and find a good friend to make enough great memories to last a lifetime. Bye for now Bob... Thanks for the memories.

Bob was a fixture in my life for all of my formative years. The crazy antics and shenanigans we got ourselves into were some of the best times of my life. The endless hours of our youth we spent chasing dreams and sometimes finding trouble are printed deep in my memory permanently. Thank you for being the best friend. Ed
