Hey Bob,
I don't know why I have these night vision goggles.
This is my first Mother's Day without you, it has been almost 6 months since you left to be with God. It seems like an eternity.
I am heartbroken every day, I miss every wonderful thing about you,
your smile, your voice, your scent, your intelligence, your thirst for new experiences and knowledge and learning, your performing with your band, your tender caring heart, your wonderful hugs, your encouragement, your protection.
You were everything to me. You forgave me everything I did wrong, and all I didn't do right for you.
You provided the best things in life, a wonderful Hawaiian vacation, movies,
restaurants, hiking, going to the beach, but you know, anytime, anywhere, just to be with you were the best times of my life. No one ever cared for me like you did. Chas and Bea are so kind and keep me close, and I thank you for that.
I would be lost without them.
I cannot get used to this new reality, it is so cruel.
Did you plead with God?
Did you ask him, "how will Bea and my Mom and Chas go on without me?"
Did you ask for more time to do good for so many people, here on earth?
I am so grateful for the first 75 days of 2021, we spent each morning at 4am walking together for 45 minutes-they went by so fast-I loved hearing your voice, your triumphs, concerns, plans and hopes-I can see us walking as I drive through the streets that we trod.
You were truly, larger than life, you made things happen, you were a leader, you were unafraid.
I look forward to the time I can be with you again, you are my heart, my hope.
I love you so much oh best beloved, my dear son, Bob.
Your Mom

His Life

The Strongest. The Toughest. The Best

December 2, 2021
From the moment Bob entered this world he had an immediate alertness and seemed to know what was going on. Even as a toddler he showed no fear. When he was about two, his mom would chase her boys around the house with a gift wrapping roll, bopping them on the head, all the boys would run away...except Bob. He would stand his ground no matter what. 

Bob has always been good with people. In kindergarten, he was the only one invited to even the girls' birthday parties. He never missed a day from school, even summer school, even when the teachers didn't want him there. By high school he was really coming into his own, walking through the mall would take forever because he was always running into people he knew and talking to them about their families.

Bob despised fear; he knew fear growing up, but as he grew, he confronted and overcame it, shaping him into the man he became. Bob could really see people. He recognized at a glance what people needed and provided it. He was more than willing to take on pain and fear to protect others. There was no call he would not answer. He endured so much because he truly cared about people.

He was a man of art, who encouraged and inspired joy and passion in those around him.

Bob has two birthdays, his second was January 10th, 1998 when he began sober life. Inspiring his brother and wife to join them.

So long

December 18, 2021
Robert , so very sad to hear about your passing. We lost Valerie 1 week before you what are the odds. In high school it was always a pleasure having a conversation with you. You were insightful , funny and kind. Always told it how it was very blunt but you always made me laugh. When you worked at blockbuster I always looked forward to seeing you and chatting about what movies to rent or if I liked it when I returned it. Then we’d still talk movies atschool.  I enjoyed the little friendship we had and wished we could have continued it longer after high school but everyone tends to move on with their own things. May your beautiful soul Rest In Peace.
