Bob Breen Obituary, Death – We announce the passing of Bob Breen, one of our most cherished clients, with deep sorrow and heavy hearts. Bob and Maryanne have been regular clients and members of the Sarape family for a long time. They were a regular member of our Friday night staff and would frequently occupy a booth. They honored milestones and celebrated significant occasions with us, just like many of our wonderful clients.
They told us how thrilled they were to retire in Florida but also how losing El Sarape by moving away was wrong. Not just the cuisine, but more significantly, our staff members, who treated us like family just as we did. Bob would constantly try to get me to establish a Florida location, which he promised he would assist me in running. He would come in all enthusiastic and tell us how close he was to perfecting meals like our Pollo Monterrey when he would try to make them at home.
Since they couldn’t be with us, they would even prepare meals for their pals and throw a Cinco de Mayo party! He may have even attempted to obtain recipes from Javier, Miguel, or me. Our thoughts and prayers are with Maryanne, her three daughters, grandchildren, and family at this incredibly trying time. Bob’s enormous smile, contagious laugh, and large hugs will be missed by the whole El Sarape staff as well as the Adame family.
I am aware that no one has had an easy time during the past few years. We have also lost other El Sarape customers, and we will always have their families in our hearts. Raise a glass of margarita or sangria in their honor the next time you’re in if you know Bob (or anyone else who isn’t with us); I’m sure he’ll be beaming down from above.
