So sorry to learn of Bob's death. I have many fond memories of him from our rotary days. My condolences. Roger Brown.

Just learned of Bob's passing. I flew Bob and Josephine to Martha's Vineyard a few years ago for a lunch in Katama. Fun day. Bob always took care of the less fortunate. Saw this first hand. They seemed to enjoy the flight. I was his paperboy back in the 60's. Always a gentleman. I will miss him.

Dear JoAnn, I grew up knowing you when I lived with Tillie and my mother, Mary Abbruzzi Larsen, in Warren. You were a dear friend of my Aunt Margaret. I was very sorry to hear of the passing of your husband, Bob. May he rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this moment. Judy Howell

Bob was always a sincere and courteous person. My sincere condolences to the family.

I worked for Bob 30 years ago. I also worked with Tracy in the billing department for school contracts. Bob was a kind & generous man. He will be in my thoughts and prayers.

We extend our condolences to Bobâ??s family, as well as to his many friends and business associates. Ernest and Suzanne Mayo

You will be missed uncle Bob. Thank you for being Pop popâ??s best friend. We were grateful at a low time in our lives when we used your beautiful house in Florida. We were very grateful. Thank you for all you did! My sincere condolences to auntie JoAnn and my cousins. We love you and will miss uncle Bob! Mark, Rosa, Gavin, and Brooke

Tracey, our deepest sympathies to you and your family for the loss of your Dad. He was a remarkable person who achieved so much and provided such a beautiful life for your family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Avila family during this difficult time. ~The Oliveira Family

Dear Auntie Jo, Robin, Leslie, and Tracey, Our hearts go out to all of you at this painfully sad time. Uncle Bob was such a kind soul. We always looked forward to our Christmas gatherings so many years ago. Those family gatherings were the highlight of our holidays in our younger days. Uncle Bob has always held a special place in my heart and will for the rest of my days. With love from Dawn, Skip, and family...

My condolences to the Avila family. Al Bettencourt

My sincerest condolences go out to all of Bobâ??s family members. Iâ??m sure JoAnn and the girls will miss him terribly, just as Iâ??m sure theyâ??ll all have great memories. I worked for Bob for quite a few years, first at Town and Country, then part-time keeping the books for his real estate â??empire.â?? A fond memory: I asked Bob what a check was for that was sent somewhere on the other side of the world. He said it was for â??earthquake relief.â?? I asked if he knew someone there. Bob said â??No, I just feel bad for them.â?? Thatâ??s the Bob I remember. May he Rest In Peace.

a great man, may you rest in peace bob & lea

To Bob's family We will miss Bob's daily walk around our Circle. He and Bingo always stopped to thank us for planting flowers in our yard that he would watch and enjoy from his window. I have a granddaughter who learned how to sing B-I-N-G-O from Bob. Thank you for being a nice neighbor, Bob. Condolences to the Avila family. Alvin and Prima Hower, your neighbors

May our condolences and prayers ease the pain of your loss. Bob and Joan Lawrence

Auntie Jo, Robin, Leslie and Tracey, Uncle Bobâ??s presence here will be missed but his memory will endure. The best Holy Ghost auctioneer, having the best blueberry patch on what is now the â??Plazaâ?? on Metacomet Avenue, playing cards in the garage on Labor Day near Grampa Bernsteinâ??s on the corner Metacom and Laurel Lane, the quirky boat names, always the generous host for the yearly family Christmas parties and always working the tent at the Quahog Festival. May his memory forever be a blessing. Love, Deb, Charles and family

Condolences to the family on the loss of a wonderful and generous person. RIP Donna Gablinske

Dear Tracey and Fam, Gwenn and I are thinking of you now and hoping you will heal from this loss in time. We are sending positive thoughts and wishing you all the peace that surely goes along with a life well lived. I spent several days with Bob a few years ago acting as his driverâ?¦.and his passenger when he wanted to take the wheel. We shared a lot of his stories and visited a few of his best friends and had lunch together at Amaral's. He is an amazing person, a true gentleman, an elder statesman, and someone so rare and special that I was very lucky to have known. He is a very successful gut that never lost track of his humble beginning. Truly a rare breed. He leaves a life long lasting impression on me and his efforts to pass along a little wisdom were not lost with me. I like to think he's looking down and as he always hasâ?¦.is watching out for us in his gentle way. We have a new angel guiding our way. With a twinkle in his eye and a wink and a smile we will all miss him and remember him in our own way. Jim Bousquet

Auntie Jo, Leslie, Robin and Tracey, From Christmas celebrations, playing cards in the garage on Labor day near Nana and Grampa's on Metacom Ave. His two funny named boats. Uncle Bob's memory will always be a bright light in my heart.

Jo-Ann, Robin, Leslie and Tracey, so sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.
