    I had to pick the purple candle, as the minute I saw it, it reminded me of his car he had. Such fun in the can. That was his baby back then. Now he has 3 beautiful girls and an amazing wife. Please find peace and love within the words you read from others. Bob wouldn't want it any other way. In our hearts forever and always.

    Uncle Bob was truly one of a kind. There are not enough words to describe how wonderful he was. Throughout my life, he was always so loving and caring. As I progressed through school into my career, he was always one of my biggest fans. The last time I spoke with him, was no exception. I love you Uncle Bob. May your memory be a blessing. Aunt Pat, Lisa, Amanda and Deanna, we love you and are here for you. Love, Jonathan

    Bob was a great husband, father and friend. We sang together in the Diamond Cut quartet for several years. He was an outstanding baritone and made me sound better as the bass. RIP. You will be missed.

    Bob and Ray Ludwicki drove me to the first rehearsal when I coached The Twin Shores Barbershop Chorus. From that moment on we were fast friends. Bob had a beautiful pure voice, very much like who he was as a person. He brought Deanna to me for voice lessons. He was so very supportive in my endeavors to help him and many others learn more about how to bring out their vocal potential. Our relationship expanded well beyond singing as we shared our life stories. Our hearts are broken as we miss Bob's presence! Heartfelt condolences to his family and all those who loved Bob

    1st cousin on my mom's side, my husband and I came to visit, and Bob and Pat, my husband and I went to a cemetery in Queens to look for our Grandfather's grave. We finally found it, no headstone, but such fun as we searched for the grave 🥰 I'll miss our Astros vs Yankees rivalry texts... RIP dear cousin 🙏🏻

    My Uncle Ed (Klose) and Bobby were friends and a part of my early childhood. Those two were always up to something and they were fun to be around. My profound condolences to the Watkins family for the passing of your beloved husband, dad and friend. A good, funny and wonderful man to all who know him. God bless.
