In loving memory of a kind and understanding Man. I could never have thanked Bobby enough for being a friend to my father. They shared the terrible disease of Diabetes and would often compare notes. The old man on the bike is now at peace from all the pain. God bless.

We can not express the sorrow we feel for the lose of Bobby.
The sadness felt is bitter, too sharp for the tongue.
Bobby will always be known as a leader, and a great friend to Ned Riggin. Daddy often mentions Bobby's name in regard to how happy he always is to see him. He will be so sadly missed by the "old man on the bike".
Rest in Peace.

To Bobby's Family, I worked with Bobby at the Jesse Morie Company in Mauricetown in 1978. He was one great person, always smiling and friendly. Because of his fine character, he was one of the most highly regarded employees. I'm very sorry to learn of his passing. RIP, Bobby.

Barbara and family,

I was sad to read of the Loss of your loved one Bob.
I remember the days when you and your friends came to eat at Ben's BBQ where I worked as a teenage curb service waitress.
You were all a lot of fun to wait on.
I now live in New Mexico.

God bless you and family and give you peace during this difficult time.
