Dear Gail and Gabrielle, We are so sorry and sad for the loss of Bob. Everyone that knew him, loved him! He was one of the most gentle, friendliest man with the warmest smile and soft spoken voice we ever known. We will forever cherish all the beautiful memories of the good times and laughs we shared together, especially in AC. Bob will be forever in our hearts and surely missed. Heaven definitely gained an angel. Love you always, Barbara, Joe Tringali

I am forever grateful to have had Bob and the Sweeney family in my life. Bob was an amazing man with an incredible soul. He brought so much light into the lives of everyone who had the honor of knowing him. His legacy will live on by the positive impact he had on all who met him. Bob's heart was full of nothing but kindness and sincerity. He was always there for everyone in good times and in bad. He truly cared for everyone he knew and was always the first one there to lend a helping hand or to offer support. I will always cherish the times our families spent together - so many laughs and wonderful memories that I will always keep close to my heart. What gave Bob the most joy in his life was his devotion to his beautiful family. He had so much pride and adoration for his daughter Gabrielle and a deep love for his wife Gail. Anytime he looked at Gail, his face would light up and his eyes would shine bright with happiness. The love they shared was truly magical and was something that others can live 100 lifetimes and never find. I pray that his family will find comfort in the love they shared and that it will carry them through this difficult time and always. My deepest love, sympathy, and prayers are with the Sweeney family today and always. May God bless you all. Love always, Vita...

Bob was an extraordinary individual. He was my right hand, go-to person while on the job. He never complained about any job handed to him and always made everyone laugh and smile while doing it. His friendly, loving spirit always made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. He kept calm and peace within our shop and the crew. He was a gentle giant and someone we all, including myself, looked up to. His loss is tragic, sudden and too soon for such a kind hearted, gentle, caring person. Rest in Peace Bob-O, I will miss you dearly! Eternal rest grant upon thee, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen

Our deepest sympathies to Gail and Gabrielle on their loss. Our hearts ache and are broken for them both. Bob was a kind, sincere, genuine and all around wonderful man who we feel blessed to have had in our lives. He had a heart of gold and when anyone was in need of help he would be the first one to come running without a second thought. The love he and Gail shared was so beautiful, rare and admired by all. His family was his world and the love he had for his daughter Gabrielle was unconditional. I know he will be their forever guardian angel protecting them the rest of their lives. We will always treasure all the fun times we had, laughs we shared and beautiful memories we made. Bob you will be forever missed . The Sweeney’s are not only our friends but they are our family. We love you guys and our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. Love, Greg , Josephine and Michael
