Bob was a senior when I was a sophomore in High School and I only knew him by name. His funeral was a couple months before I left for Marine boot camp and eventually Vietnam also. I don't know why I was allowed to come home from there. I'm leaving this so that he will be remembered. Thanks for your service, Bob and Semper Fi!

Bobby Jr. was my older brother I never got to meet. I know very little of the man or what he meant to others. If anyone served with or knew my brother or could tell me anything about him I would greatly appriciate it.

From his brother,
