Very sorry to hear of Bob´s passing but warmed by the fact he had a long, rich life. My father, Charlie Tabler, loved to sing with Bob playing the piano and I treasure those memories.

Bob Rosenbaum loomed large for us, his next door neighbors´ little kids. He played accordion for us, bought us candy, and gave us noisy toys to annoy our parents. We loved him, as did our mom and dad.
