I just found out that Bob had passed away. I am so sorry to hear this sad news.
I taught with Bob at Fifth Avenue School in Narragansett where he was the art teacher.I always looked forward to seeing him at the Umbrella Factory.
He was a kind soul.
My sympathy and prayers are with his family.

We are so very sorry to hear of Roberts passing. Michael and I loved visiting and staying at the House of 1833. The best part of our vacation was the awesome breakfast! We always enjoyed hanging out in the kitchen and talking. Robert will be truly missed by so many, but will live on forever in our hearts.

My heart is saddened to hear of Roberts passing.
I worked at the Steak Loft in mystic for the past 15 years as their bartender .
We would have thier cocktails made before they even sat down ( we knew better)
My relationship with Robert & Evan had grown over the years as they loved to come in to enjoy the live music.
They both were very unique.
My best to Even who is missing his soul mate and life long companion.
Thank you for the memories.
