My condolences to all the LaFore family over the death of Robert. I am very sorry he passed away on his birthday - that will always be a sad day for the children and grandchildren - I used to stay at his house when I came to town and one night I didn't come home, stayed over at Jake's and boy, he was mad the next day because he said he waited for me to come spend the night there and had kept the porch light on!! Rest in Peace Robert - Much Love, Roberta M. Menicucci
