Bob was a classmate of John´s at Loyola Law School and was in the same study group. We got to know Bob during that time and kept in touch after graduation. Bob was always hard working, conscientious and fun to be around. We send our condolences to his family.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Dalton families. I was one of Bobby's babysitters in the early 60's in Blossburg, and remember him and all the Dalton children. My prayers are with you all at this time.

We only knew Bob for a brief time, but the immediate impression he made in our presence was such a blessing! When Bob walked into a room, you immediately noticed his unrivaled smile that revealed his joy to be in the moment, there with you :)
