My Dear brother Bob. It has taken me a long time before I could express how much I missed you. Our childhood memories are priceless. You made growing up fun. I had wanted to see your Facebook posts but it was mostly taken down. I’m glad this is still up. You loved very deeply. The love for your family made me so proud of the man you had become. I loved all the jokes you pulled on people. Your laughter your smile. And I am so glad your childhood dream came to life.
I know I will see you one day.
I will also remember the last time we spoke. You said “Guess what I’m doing now?” “I’m smoking a cuban cigar you sent looking out at the ocean”
You will always be in my prayers and in my heart!

Bob was a great commissioner and an even greater person. He is the sole Reason there is a roundabout at Marshall Farms Road And Windermere Road and not two dead end roads that would have denied access to the east and south and free vacated right of way to the YMCA. Bob said "this is not right, we will fight it and we will win". With bob's guidance my neighbors and I fought and Bob fought and against great odds we won. We owe it all to Bob. I wish there was something that could be done to keep Bob,s legacy alive. A stroke is a debilitating brain injury but the depression that follows can can be just as or even more cruel. I have treatment resistant depression and have been treated for 21 years. It has cost me many friends and my job with orange county after 33 years. Without help I would not be here today and if others could just learn this message we could save lives, families and so much more. Thank you Bob: a good commissioner and an even greater person.

I will miss you brother Bob. I'll remember you as always laughing and smiling. Best memory with you was the Notre Dame game in South Bend when you came up to visit. A packed stadium and we had the best seats in the house to watch a great game!
Rest In Peace knowing that you were loved by many. See you again soon...but not just yet

Bobby - what memories we have and all good. A few come to mind - one how fun it was to develop the end of Bayshore Drive, and the time we drove 100 MPH to get to a closing on time. My thoughts and prayers are for you and also for your entire family. Bobby, I know you will now RIP. XO Suzi
