I’ll never forget my Dad’s great friend. He was truly a blessing in my life and taught me a lot when I was growing up. I would get so excited when I knew we were going to see Bobby, Gail, Erica and Robert. I now and will always consider you guys family. I’m so sorry for your great loss. I’ll never forget him. He is somebody who helped mold me into the man I am today. I always looked up to him. He was terrific role model among many other wonderful qualities he possessed. I truly believe he is hanging out with my Dad right now and they are looking down on us and protecting all of us from Heaven. I love you guys so much!!
Sincerely,
Christopher Paul Keniston

Gail, Erica, Rob and the entire Mallardo Family
I was very sorry to hear the news about the loss of Bobby. He was a great true lifelong friend of ours since our early teens at Harris Park. Bobby went out of his way to hookup with me when i went back to Medford from Tampa Florida the last 20 years since I moved. Bobby also came down to Florida a few times and we were able to meet especially for the Bucs Patriots game in 2017. He will be sorely missed by his friends and family.
Sincerely
Mike McCarthy
