Debbie and family, Holly and I were deeply saddened to hear the news about Bobby. I first met him when I started at Janco in 1984. He was a great guy to be around. I'll never forget our times at Pats games, Buffet concerts and parties at Joe's. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

To the Barrett Family,
I heard the news today of Bob's tragic accident. I dealt with Bob here at TASCA Chevrolet. He purchased a new Chevy Colorado from me recently and I got to know him a little bit. I am saddened by the news of his passing and my sincerest thoughts go out to his family.

My Sincerest Sympathy to the family. This is a tragic loss. Working for the East Greenwich Building Department, Bob was one of the finest gentlemen I've ever had the pleasure to meet. I always enjoyed chatting with him. He was so proud of his family. His eyes lit up when he'd talk about the grand kids... He had such a beautiful outlook on life. I'll never forget him. Rest in Peace my friend, you will be missed.
