Sending my deepest condolences to the Raisley family and friends. I went to grammar school with Robert at Saint John Villa Academy. I remember Robert asked me to the eighth grade dance. I wore a white dress with tiny blue polkadots. Robert looked so handsome and was a perfect gentleman. When we graduated, all the classmates went to Lum Chin, Chinese restaurant. We tearfully said our goodbyes, as each classmate was embarking on a new beginning in high school. We were so close, we all knew how much we would miss each other. I learned of your passing yesterday by a mutual friend. Bo, from Bo’s ATTIC in the Highlands. I remember bumping into you there. You always spoke so fondly of your sister, Linda, and your Mom and Dad. As youngsters, your grandmothers house was on the same block as mine in Staten Island. Townley Avenue. I remember fondly, summers when you were visiting your Grandmother. Rest in peace, dear Saint John Villa, brother. I know God will keep you and hold you in the palm of his hand. Your childhood friend, here on Earth, and someday, when I shall meet you again in Heaven. Maria Vene-Murasso

Dear Beverly, Bob, Linda and Danny, There are no words which can describe the tremendous grief and sadness I feel or the concern and love I have for all of you. It is impossible for me to imagine a world without beautiful Robbie in it. I loved him the moment I met him many, many years ago. His sensitivity, enthusiasm and his talents were amazing. His goodness, kindness and purity were a gift to us all. He lit up the world with the light from within him. He was a brilliant expression of God's pure LOVE. Robbie was an eternally young, bright and loving spirit, a precious and exceptional man. I will hold him within my heart forever. There will not be a day that goes by that I will not miss him. No one who knew him and loved him could ever forget him. May God bless and keep you in His care and carry you through this painful time. I love you very much, Roo XXX

I will never forget all the times he let me sit by his desk with him and hang out during lunch and after school at P.S.35. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. I’ll miss him so much. He made my time at P.S.35 so special!

Please help me find the strength to move forward, but never forget how much you meant to me. Rest in Peace and watch over us until we meet again… ❤️ You, Dan
