We will miss our friend Bobby; reminiscing about New York, his mischievous smile and laughter, and all the great times we shared in Fort Lauderdale.
We offer our sympathy and beautiful memories.

Dear Carol, Bobby was our friend for over thirty years. We had great times in New York, during his visits to see us in Rio de Janiero and we grew even closer during the ten years that we all lived in Florida.
Now that we live in Las Vegas, we were very happy when he visited us last year. He was a true friend and we know that God is holding him in the palm of his hand.

To the family, Bobby was one of the best persons that we knew as a great friend for many years while we lived in Ft. Lauderdale. His humor and manner was special and one in a million. He will be sorely missed for all the years to come. We will never forget the times we had with him and will treasure the memories for a lifetime. Sleep well our beloved friend.

Words cannot express our feelings on the loss of our dear friend Bobby. We saw him last year when he was here in Las Vegas. And the memories that I have from that trip make this a bit easier. He was one-of-a-kind! May the comfort of God be with you during this time. Anthony and Michael
