My wife and I send our condolences to Bob's family. Cowboy Bob, as he sometimes liked to refer to himself, and I graduated from St. Constance Grammar School in 1958. Our classmates have tried to remain in contact with each other as much as possible over the years. I used to send out a periodic newsletter to all through the internet. Since Bob didn't have access to it, I would call him to keep him abreast of what was going on. I always enjoyed talking to Bob. I am sure that the Good Lord welcomed Bob and Bernadette with open arms. May they both Rest in Peace!

Bob and Bernadette were regulars at the 7am Sunday Mass and we also enjoyed stopping and chatting with them. Bob will be missed just as Bernadette is. Our sincere condolences to Rick.
