Rest in peace Bob. Have a drink with Dave.
We are so sorry for your loss. I first met Cowboy at Jack’s Tavern in Millersville. We shared lots of laughs during those days. Although we lost touch, I have told often stories about Cowboys and will never forget him.
Bob was a good man, I wish I could have known him better but I know he made my sister happy and that’s all that matters. Rest in peace Cowboy, you will be missed.
Bob Deery the PARK LEGEND. WOW, NOT BOB DERRY, REST IN PEACE PARK BROTHER…THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES. TELL THE PARK BOYS THEY ARE MISSED.
Rest in peace Bob. Great friend in my childhood and early teens. Bob and I used to cut grass in our neighborhood. Always be remembered for all the adventures we got into. Bob was talented in many ways and always kept us laughing. They don’t make em like Bob anymore!
