Bob was a 'neighbor" in the neighborhood and will always be remembered as one of the guys who always had a friendly demeanor. In the high school days he had his 3-4 buddies that went around together as I, too, had my 3-4 buddies. I didn't see him after high school as we all went out separate ways and was pleased to see that he had 52 years of marriage and children. RIP neighbor.
