We are so very sorry to hear about the passing of Bob. Our condolences and prayers go out to you and your family.????
Dear Linda, Rob, and Tammy,
I am Bob’s Illinois cousin. In those early years as youngsters and then teens we had fun family times with Bob and his siblings. As I read condolences from folks that I don’t know it is obvious that Bob found his place in Rhode Island with a loving wife and children, family and friends. Bob, Rob, and Tammy visited us in Illinois when my children were young. That was the last time I saw him. You have been in our thoughts and prayers as you bid goodbye to a husband and Father that you loved so deeply. We will continue to remember you as future days unfold — when you long to hear his voice once more. Our love to you, Anna and Steve Stoller
We are so sad about Uncle Bob. Our deepest condolences to our family xxoo
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. “Uncle” Bob was a wonderful man. He made me feel apart of his family from the first time we met while I was away from home going to college. I shall always remember his smile, shining eyes, and love of life. May he rest in peace now.
Love always,
Marcy and Scott Slye
