Dear Palermini Family. So Very sorry for your loss. It was a gift to have known and been associated with Bob and your family thru business relationships. Having worked previously with Geno and Mareno, Bob carried on the spirit of the business with integrity and caring. He was always there for me when I was in a pinch.
He will truly be missed.
It was an honor to have known him. A truly good person.
God Bless you and keep you.
Tony
