Bobby was a good friend. He would make me laugh so hard and tell such great stories about growing up with Nick and Barbara, about Ely and Mama Pavlakis. His memory was amazing. My condolences, David. I am heartsick that he is gone, but whenever I will think of Bobby, it will be with a smile. May he rest in peace.

Today I found out I lost a “true” friend. Bobby and I had been friends for over 40 years and my heart aches for not only my loss of someone that I loved, admired, respected and considered a “true” friend, but all of the many family and friend’s lives he touched as well. Bobby will always be in my heart. I am so going to miss his smile and those big bear hugs he would give me. Bree, David, I am so sorry for your loss. This world was a much better place because of him. He will be dearly missed.
Today I tried calling my barber and friend I have had for 42 years. When I received the no longer in service message, I felt the loss. I first met Bob at the age of 14 walking into his barber shop located on Koval Ln. I have only known for a couple months that he was battling cancer. He never let on but I saw the physical signs and had to ask. He told me he had cancer and didn’t know the severity until tests were completed. I feel a real loss this evening as I comment with others. I will forever miss you my friend.
Bob was a family friend for over 45 years. I remember my Dad taking me to get my hair cut since I was a little kid. He was the best man in my parent wedding Carl and Cynthia Osborne. I always remember Bob being absolutely enjoyable to be around and full of energy. Ill never forget his laugh. I always liked talking to him about Elk hunting and fishing. This man will forever in our thoughts and in our hearts! We miss you!
I am sorry for you loss. Bobby was a great person when I knew him in high school.
