My deepest sympathy goes out to Rick and the entire Quesada family. We became friends in the early 60's playing PAL football together and were friends for life. Time would go by between seeing one another but when we did it would seem like it was only yesterday.He was a great, caring person and will be missed by all.

To all the family and many friends of Bob Quesada, may the memories and wonderful times help you pass this most difficult time with his passing. I personally have many great memories of Bob's funny jokes and pranks from my high school days at Leto. The last time I saw Bob, which was a few years back he still was as funny as ever and had that quick wit. My deepest sympathy to all who Bob touched.

Uncle Bobby,
Wishing I would have kissed both cheeks instead of one and hugged you a little longer. Thank you for my first barbie and for showing me how to spot the difference between good and bad lumber. Thank you for letting me wash your car for money and teaching me nothing is free. Because of you I never wear shoulder pads in my clothing. Haha "your shoulders are big enough" You would say. And I will never forget the quarters you gave me each time I got an answer right on the math quiz's you gave us. Most of all thank you for your time. It was more precious to me than you could have ever known in this lifetime. I will forever miss you and love you.
