I was saddened to read about Bobby's passing. My brother and I were the younger kids down the block on Marietta Place in D.C. I retain fond memories of Bobby, and we all took great pride in our modest friend's exploits at Coolidge, and remember his enthusiastic personality. I can even recall a few exploits on the field on Madison Street. Fondest regards.

WORDS, WORDS, WORDS,LETTERS PLACED NEXT TO EACH OTHER TO WHICH SOMEONE APPLIED A MEANING. I looked in the dictionary and Google to find one to describe BOB and did not find the answer.
A man, unique in every aspect of life. A very, very special person. BOB was kind, thoughtful and generous plus all the other words indicating GOOD. In my 1561 page dictionary you will not find a word or words to describe BOB.
I have known BOB for over 51 years and never has he said a derogatory word about anyone, even when others did.
I have a new word to use IF I ever have the good fortune to meet another BOB.---"BOBROHRA' YES...iT DESCRIBES HIM, THEY WILL BE "BOBROHRA".
See you soon BOB----LOVE YA

I always enjoyed seeing Bob at church because he was always happy to see you. His happiness was very contagious. Lisa and I were happy that he was able to attend our wedding last fall. We will miss him.

Mr. Rohr was very nice to Matt during our time with the Rohr family. Matt loved how Bob was Santa for the kids during Christmas. He has remarked that Santa and Easter Bunny are good people and was glad to know them as his grandparents. Our prayers are with the Rohr family.

Our sympathy and prayers are with all of the Rohr family. We have lots of fond memories of the past years when we shared fun, fellowship and food with Bob. He was especially attentive and kind to my sons when they were growing up.
