Dear Mr. and Mrs. Mamula and John, I’m so sorry to learn of Rob’s passing. He and I met when we were just 13 and shared many happy times together. Even though we lost touch over the years, he was never far from my thoughts and prayers. Not a birthday passed that I didn’t think of him and wish him the best. He was a wonderful friend and will be missed. Please know that you and your family are in my prayers. Senna
Mr. and Mrs Mamula, no one new what Robbie meant to me, but Robbie. He will be forever missed in my heart. With the sorrow of his passing I will always remember all the great memories. For the rest of my life I will miss him. The both of you are in my thoughts and prayers.
He was a bully throughout school picking on the weak and handicap. He was a dirty cop and Karma is finally served. Many are celebrating and we will toast his passing. Sure he is in Hell!
John, It’s been several Years since I’ve seen you! I am So Sorry to hear about Rob. I just found out today. I will keep you and your parents in my thoughts and prayers! Hope you have a happy life :). God bless!!
The first time I encountered Manila was during football practice. I was a freshman and he a sophomore. He tapped me on the shoulder and when I turned, he spiked me in my face with a football. Learned from several Steubenville policemen, that Mamula is who triggered the Department of Justice taking over the police department due to police brutality. He took his own life for Corruption rather than being a dirty cop in prison. Heard many stories over the years and didn’t know if they were true. Karma !
