Fudge
When Blair and I were in grade school, my mother would make fudge every Christmas, and of course, we shared with the Palese family! Each time Blair would pop home to see her folks, I'd arrange to visit....and without fail, Bob would greet me with "where's my fudge"??
This past summer, my mother made the fudge for the first time in perhaps 20 years---and now I was prepared for the inevitable question! Bob loved it, and I was so glad our running joke now had a sweet (and fattening!) ending!
He'll always be "Mr. Palese" to me, and I'll always have warm memories of him....

Proudest Grandad in the whole world
Dear Aline, Blair, Sherry, Enrico, Lucca and the wider Palese clan - our hearts go out to you at this very sad time. We were lucky enough to share Thanksgiving with you all in Rehoboth (more than once!) and never have I seen a prouder Grandad than Bob. Lucca is such a lucky boy to have spent the good times he did with his Grandad. I was at that wedding in Sydney too and agree with Maria, that impromptu jazz drumming from Bob lives on in the memory. We are sending big hugs to the whole family across the world as you come to terms with your loss. Much love, Elisabeth and Frank. xxxx
