Memories and Condolences

We recently received this tragic news and are DEEPLY sadenned.



We got to know Bobby as his Supparosa customers and he always brightened our day. Sometimes those closest are not aware of the impact made and Bobby certainly left a lasting impression on us: he was warm, outrageously funny, very quick-witted and thoughtful - not to mentioned our favorite server.



We pray for that you are granted strength, courage and wisdom to get through this very difficult period.



We celebrate Bobby's life as we knew him. Our deepest and most heartfelt sympathies are with you and your loved ones.

Bobby was truly one of a kind. Never will anyone know someone as genuine, as comical, as unique, as loving as Bobby. I can say with absolute certainty he has left a lasting impression on every person that knew him. Let us all embrace the memories and good times! Bobby, we will miss you terribly!!!

My thoughts are with you all. Tony would tell me so many stories of the family and of Bob, particularly a fishing trip on his last trip to Chicago. I am so sorry he died so young. Lots of love, Claire
