Bj, my only son. I miss you so much. In less than 4 hrs I will see you for the very last time in this world. I have been going thru pics and reading all the posts and guestbook entries. You are loved and will be missed by so many. There has been much said about your awesome smile, or as I have always referred to it"my apple pie smile". I.remember when you, almost, broke that beautiful smile. Not even the handle bars of your bike could ruin it. I will miss you immensly. I will just remember that smile. Until we meet again, rest in peace my son. I love you. Mom

My condolences on the passing of your son Robert. Robert was a gentleman, a quiet soul, very polite. I had the opportunity to meet "BJ" several months ago. He was a friend of my son's and they will meet once again in Heaven where they will live in eternal peace together, play football, and have some laughs.

May God bless all of you at this difficult time. Robert will be forever in the hearts of the people who were so fortunate to meet him.

I remember the young boy you were, I'm sorry I never really got to know the young man that you became. I have always loved your smile. I love you and you will never be forgotten, you will always have a place in my heart.

Two lovesick kids, back in High School I remember giving Jackie grief because everything was all about “Bj, BJ, BJ” – how’s about staying home long enough to clean your room? The years they were apart, his name would come up time and time again. It was never said, but I knew she always had hope that he would come back to her. When he did, and I saw him again for the first time in so many years, I could not believe what a wonderful man he had become – handsome, happy, caring, intelligent and working so hard. Although he was only here with us for a few short months, I will be forever grateful that my daughter had that time with him – and that he made sure to leave her with wonderful new memories. BJ, I don’t know who I’ll eat Chinese with or watch Sci-Fi with now – but for my daughter, and the Love she has lost, I will be here for her now that you can't be….she is not alone, and I know you are now at peace. Mel, from one mother to another, I can only try to understand the pain you are in, and my heart breaks for you.

Jenn, I did not realize how close you and BJ were. I am glad that you were able to create some special memories of your own. Jackie is a part of our family and so are you. Thank you for taking care of "Our BJ" for us when we could not, we owe. My door will always be open for you as well. Love Tom

Rob, It was such a pleasure working with you at The Home Depot in Bridgewater. You joined the Delivery Team and" Boy did you make it your Own." You took a broken system and made it all come together with lots of hard work and dedication. Your commitment to the team was Outstanding! Your smile, your laughter and your drive to be successful is what I will always remember about you. Thank you for being you, and for being a part of our Service Desk family. We will all miss you dearly. May God Bless you and all who love you at this most difficult time.

Bj you were my first friend I meant in Easton and we rode the bus together every morning. You introduced me to your cousin in which gave me the love of my life my daughter and I love you and forever be grateful for that. I wish you could have meant Shawn he's a great guy and treats me well and you always said I deserved that. And that's just who you are you always had great advice told the truth even though sometimes it was blunt I knew I could always turn to you and hear the truth not just what I wanted to hear. You've been a part of my life since I was 14 years old I consider you family and we always called each other cousins because that's what we were. We've been through hell and back together we've had good times we've had bad times but we always help each other up. I know you've been through a lot and you carried so much pain however you still had the courage stay positive and smile God that smile whenever you would laugh regardless of the situation you would always crack a joke to ease the tension. You've touched so many lives in so many ways everybody loves you. May your soul rest in peace and your energy be around your family and friends for the rest of our lives until we meet again. You're in good company in the heavens. You'll forever be missed and always be loved love always your cousin Jack Jack.

Candace and Rufus , we have been friends and family for such a long time. Once again in our lives the fact that life is too short and you never know what tomorrow will bring has slapped us in the face. We need to savor the short time we have on this earth. We need to get back to what important. Its been way too long since we hung out and that must be corrected, before its too late. We love and miss you guys.

Bj. Beej. Bajaamalammahh.
Both of our lives have been nothing short of a roller coaster ride & you, my friend, have held a seat on mine for numerous years. Through countless struggles, laughs, fears, & accomplishments you have been there. I will hold on to our many memories. The fact that Aiyana had gotten to meet you before you were called up to the heavens I will forever cherish. Your personality, laugh, & kind soul will live on through all of us left here to hold your memory daily. Although life was not always easy you remained compassionate, strong, kind, & amazing on so many levels. I will forever miss you my friend 💜 I remember when you sent the family request on Facebook to be labeled cousins; I smiled. For you had already been considered family for years before... Youforever be in my heart & never will your memory die. I know all to well that our family would never let that happen. Watch over us love, & especially over Jackie, for I know a piece of her went with you. Love you. Fly high my angel.

My love, I miss you so much. I know you are in a better place and have finally found peace. This is the only thing giving me any comfort right now. When I first met you in junior high 14 years ago I knew you were my soul mate, my true love, that once in a life time love that some people never find. We were young and naïve, life got in the way. The years we were apart I felt like I was just wandering through life, that something was missing because you always had my heart. A miracle happened when you came back into my life a year ago and we immediately picked up where we left off. My life was finally complete. We were planning our wedding and dreaming about having children and a home of our own. We were supposed to grow old together. I don't know what to do without your smile, your laugh, waking up to your cuddles, that look in your eyes when I would catch you just watching me, your advice, your patience, your free spirit, your compassion, your understanding, without you. Although I am back to wandering through life again, I will always carry you in my heart. I never stopped and never will. I know that I can’t be with you right now because there is still more for me to do here. I will honor you in everything I do, until we meet again…

Jackie, I am so very sorry for your loss. You are the BEST thing that ever happened to my son. If not for, you he would have missed out on so much . I owe you so much for the joy you brought into his life. You were one of the brightest lights at the end of his long dark tunnel. You made it possible for him to create beautiful memories with his family. The last months of his life would not have been the same for him without you. No matter how long you were apart, or when life took you down separate paths.......you always found your way back. You were his true,true love and his soulmate. You are I may not always agree, but that is because you are a VERY strong woman. That strength and your love for him will be what gets you through this tremendously rough time in your life. My son loved you so much. I know you will honor his memory.You will always be a part of this family. Know that we are always here for you. My heart breaks for you every minute. I love you. Stay strong.

I hired Rob almost 3 mos ago at The Bridgewater Home Depot. His work ethics, his sincerity, his kindness, was noticed right away. We saw his potential to be so much more with the company. Although we are devastated by the loss of having him in the store by our side..we are grateful that we were able to get to know him and his spirit will be with us forever.

Jackie, I am so so sorry for your loss. I could not imagine losing Melanie. I owe you so much for making this past holiday season very special. I always thought YOU were the ONE for BJ and was looking forward to you becoming my daught-in-law.
My dearest Jackie, you will always be welcome in my home wherever that my be. As I have said before, I have considered you my fourth daughter for a very long time. I love you as much as all of my children. As with them and Mel, I wish I could make all your pain go away. Being a dad that is my job and right now I feel helpless. Again I am so so sorry.
Love ya kiddo
