My condolences. I'm very saddened by the loss of a very close friend and neighbor. For 35 years we talked back and forth across Center Street. He was always there as a friend. When my wife was ill and dying food arrived daily at my door, the driveway was cleared of snow and my cars were maintained without question. His loss has already created an immeasurable loss in my life. Rest in Heaven good friend!!

I am so saddened to hear this news. Bob was such a good friend to me since I moved to PA from NY. Always someone to kid around with at Mike Piazza Honda. The best Halloween costume as Vito from The Sopranos with the pool stick and everything! Loved that all your kids names started with the letter M! When I had my surgery you came and visited and brought your famous chicken soup! You were such a generous and loving man, you adored your children and grand children, one of the hardest workers I've ever knows. God Bless you buddy. My condolences to Mark, Michelle, and Matt. ((HUGS))

It saddened me to hear of Bob's passing. Although I did not know him well I did have the pleasure of seeing him from time to time at Grasso family events. Bob was a very caring individual. He will be missed by many. May he rest in peace.
His memory will live on in the many good deeds he has done for others.

I miss talking to you so much already. In fact, I've tried to call you a couple times. Can you get me heavens number? You were the person I told everything to, you were the person that answered all my questions even when you didn't want to, you knew about all my cases, we talked about the news, and how many fish you caught (or didn't lol), we talked about the grand kids and funny or cute things they did. You were my best buddy. When I was little I would think of any excuse to come hang out in the garage just so I can hang out with you. I got pretty good at painting heads. But no matter what each night you tucked me in and kneeled on the floor and read to me and when i learned to read, i read to you and usually you would be so exhausted you would fall asleep but i didnt mind. just as long as you were with me. When I was older, I looked forward to when you got home and we would have snack time and talk about all the days events. You were truly the best dad. I mean who else's dad would mail an entire cooler full of homemade food to their kid so they didn't have to worry about cooking during law school finals!! We had an amazing childhood full of great times. Most importantly what you taught us was to love all people. Even though you came off like a grizzly bear, you helped so many people and genuinely cared about making their day or life better. You joked that our house was the "house for wayward children" but that's cause you opened your heart to all those people.
You always did the best you knew how and for that I'm proud of you. I wish you worked a little less and lived a little more but hey I bet your on a nice new boat catching the big ones now.
I'm horrified that you won't get to walk me down the isle or hold my babies but you'll have front row seats from heaven.
You were one of the most hilarious people I've ever met. Even on the saddest days you kept us laughing. Hopefully Gram is sharing some pitzells with you. Until we meet again Dad. I love you so much.
