Robert and I were the best of buddies growing up in the fifties and mid sixties. We camped and fished and worked on model A's Fords. We both went to Pawtucket vocational high. We were at the stock car races every weekend. Robert had a heart of gold and was a hard worker. I will always remember him. Ed Fulasz
