My heart goes out to the Grossi family for this sad loss. I'm so sorry. I'll always remember Uncle Bob having fun at the family picnics. My dad told us stories of their antics in high school together. Sending love, Megan

My sympathies to Mrs. Grossi and family. I have many memories of Mr. Grossi, as my parents were friends with you and Bob, Noreen and Red Loman. He was always helping someone, without even being asked. I could never thank him enough for being such a good friend to my dad during his cancer fight. Mr. Grossi was one of the few people dad would let in to see him in his last hour. Mr. Grossi was a true friend and had a good heart. May he rest in peace.
