Mr. Reyes often proudly told the story of a dead female body he once found.  He was able to determine her name and she was a known prostitute.  He transported her remains in his police car and found that some of it had stained his rear carpet.  Instead of cleaning it, he left it alone so it would smell very bad.  This way no other officer would want to ride in his vehicle.  He enjoyed riding alone.  He said he got used to the smell and each morning he would get in his police car and say out loud hello to her by name.  When his shift was over, he would tell her out loud goodnight by name when he left his car.  He said that his commander finally had to order him to clean out his car after hearing so many reports of this strange behavior and complaints of the disgusting smell of Mr. Reye's vehicle.

Dear Bob, I will miss you every day. You were the first bright spot as I entered the Stage Door each day.  I am so blessed to have known you. Carole Goff, Asolo Repertory Theatre.

Elena,
So sorry for your loss.  Bob was a great man and a mentor to me during the time I worked with him at the Sarasota Police Department. What a great sense of humor and I will remember him always.

Dear Elena and family,
I was so saddened today when I heard of Bob's passing.  My deepest sympathy for all of you and for a man who I dearly loved.  He has joined Dale and many other beautiful Angels in Heaven.  Rest in peace and comfort Bob.

Sincerly,

Jackie Scogi9n

A great mentor and a true friend. You will not be forgotten.

Dear Bob, because of your persistence you and I went to work at the sheriff's office in south county. I thank you for that, it was the best thing I ever did.
I will miss your crazy laugh, your phone calls every now and then just to chat and catch up about our families and our kids growing up. 
You were a dear friend to me, and I will miss you, but I will never forget you. May God Bless you and your family......

I was fortunate enough to work with Bobby in the 46 Pct. in the late 60's and early 70's He was a great guy,cop and friend who always had a smile on his face and never had a bad word to say about anyone. 

RIP brother, you will never be forgotten.

Bob, a great guy who made the best use of a second chance at life. RIP

You will be missed my dear cousin "Chinky"as we called you growing up in Fort Green, Brooklyn. Rest in  Peace. Betha, Eddie, Margie, Pamela, Danielle, And Alima

What can I say bout Bob other than he was one of the good guys. He always greeted me with a smile and I looked forward to seeing him every day as I dropped my daughter off for dance with The Sarasota Ballet School. Every time my son takes his shoes off in the car, I will remember Bobs friendly chiding of "where are your shoes?" Rest in peace dear one.

I will miss Bob's smile, his sense of humor and our political discussions.He was the first person I would see each morning on my way to my office at The Sarasota Ballet.  Mornings will never be the same.
He spoke often of his family....he loved you very much
