Bob was a survivor, an intellectual and great storyteller. He was funny, and also serious as he was always seeking more knowledge.
Worked with and for him for many years. We had a fun team and many outings over the years, the group went to see the finale of 
Seinfeld series together and even took a road trip to NOLA too! Bob was generous and had a kind heart; when one of our team 
members’ mother passed away out of state Bob quietly covered the airfare for the flight home to attend funeral. 
Rest in peace Bob.

Dear Family of Bob, 

Our beloved Bob was such a blessing to me when I began working at Holy Rosary Church. He often dropped by to chat about the latest Catholic current events,  and frequently made financial contributions to support our work to help the  faith come alive in the hearts of the men, women, and children. Perhaps, Bob was best known for his long running Sunday morning Bible Studies, rich with Biblical knowledge as well as Church doctrine and traditions. 

I was blessed to be able to visit with Bob and meet his brother a few  weeks before he went to with be our God. He approached death the same way as he lived life, with faith! 

I will miss Bob’s opinions, jokes, humor, laughs, and strong  faith but until we meet again may he pray for us, as we pray for him!

Dear Bob,
You are already dearly missed. I have so many wonderful memories of times spent in your presence at Bible Study, with our Coffee Group, at galas, special dinners, at House of Pie, and other events. You and Monsignor always made me laugh during your little "debates".  From a "miracle baby" to a wonderful man of Faith, may God grant you eternal rest. 
P.S. If you locate a computer, send us an email with a link to your heart. 
Gregorian Masses will be and are being offered for you.  Keep us in your prayers and we will keep you in ours.  
These thoughts are sent with much love. You will not be forgotten.

Dear friend and teacher,

You fought the good fight, you ran the good race, and you kept the Faith.  
Please continue to pray for us as we pray for you.  
May you rest in the peace known only in the presence of our loving Lord.
