    I am deeply sorry to hear of Bob's death.  He played a larger than life role in my life "back in the day".  Bob was a true original and it was impossible not to have a good time when he was around.  I can't believe I am speaking of him in the past tense, but he lives on in my memory.  The world is a poorer place without Bob in it.  I am in Colorado so will not be able to stop by,  but wanted to pay my respects.

    Cyd, my deepest sympathies to you and your son.  RIP Egghead

    We are so sad at the news of the passing of our good neighbor Bob. He was one of the "good guys". Bob would give you the shirt off his back and then make a joke about it. He is one of the few things I miss about Illinois. God must have needed him more than we did.  Cyd and Bobby we will keep you guys in our prayers.  This world sure could use a lot more Bob Petrolli's. God Bless

    Bobby you will be missed. Great memories of St. Agnes, Marian, Carbondale and fishing amongst other events. Never forget when you and Jimmy Harrell tied up a dragging tailpipe with a fish stringer in Minneapolis. Cyd and Bobby take care as Bob is at peace.
