I was sadden to  hear of Bob's passing. I knew Bob, he was a good man. We both worked for the Shawmut Bank Corporation for many years. Bob was always a gentlemen and would always  go out of his way to guide, inform and help any associate with performing their job. as well as directing  them as to where they could get help and assistance for both job and life related issues.  He truly was a friend to all.  As I glanced through the Patriot Ledger Newspaper  last week the smiling face  I knew before I even read the Name or Obituary. It was someone I knew , I Liked and Won't Forget. Thank You Bob.  Your friend & associate  Al Spadorcia. 

To Ginny and the rest of Bob's family I send my deepest condolences. 
 Bob was my very first boss at The Shawmut Bank  after I left the Army way back in 1968. He was a wonderful mentor and friend always upbeat, happy, positive and with a wealth of experience and wisdom to share.  Bob was also a frank, honest no nonsense guy who called things as he saw them. I could not have asked for a better guide as I entered the world of Business and Banking.  Years later when we moved to Scituate Joan and I were delighted to learn that we were near neighbors of Bob.  We always enjoyed bumping into him around town and catching up.  And oh his always wonderful witty and funny commentary. We will miss this.

Ginny, so sorry to read of Bob’s passing. My deepest sympathy and prayers. Helen Flanders,  Shawmut-Copley
