I enjoyed playing softball with Bob on the FUMC softball team in our younger days, as well as sitting next to Bob in the FUMC choir. I commend Bob and Doris on the many years they have given to the church. Bob’s humorous comments was just a cover for this caring for others – attempting to always put a smile on your face. We’ll miss you Bob.
Doris, Brian, Lisa, Beth, Em and families, We are saddened to hear of Bob’s passing. He was a character with character. Friendly to all. Please accept our sympathies.
Uncle Bob gave the tightest hugs! My heart goes out to Aunt Doris, the kids, and grandkids. Love you

We are very saddened to hear about Bob’s passing. He was a great person and a great joy to be around. I had so much fun playing golf with him and listening to all his stories. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his entire family and his friends during this difficult time. You have our deepest sympathy.
Doris, my heart hurts for you all. I loved my cousins, Bill and Bob, and will be eternally sorry that they are no longer in this world. I look forward to seeing them again in heaven. Gods blessing to your family and know that you are all in my prayers.
I’m so sorry to hear of “Wink’s” passing. He was a great friend to my parents and I’ll always remember him with a smile and joke from our Lake days. My condolences to your family.
Doris and family, will surely miss seeing Bob at the lake. We were neighbors for years. Known him most of my life since I have been going to the lake for 49 years now. He was always joking around and loved to talk about sports. My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this time of loss. RIP Bob.
Dear Doris and family,
I am so sorry to learn about Bob’s death. I so loved getting to meet him late in our lives as cousins through our dear Italian mothers. Bob was warm, caring, genuine, funny and he could never stop talking about his family. He was so proud of all of you. Seeing him at Bill’s funeral was difficult, as the loss of his brother hit Bob so hard (I remember the tire incident). I take solace in knowing the Bob and Bill are together. Please let me know if there is anything we can do. I am sending you enormous caring thoughts, love and big hugs.
