Noone can ever question his loves
Robert P. Bordogna Jr.
BORDOGNA, ROBERT P. JR., 33, of Louisville, passed away Friday, July 6, 2007. Born in Atlanta, GA, Rob's personal interests included a deep love for music and art, a passion for gardening, and a love for the outdoors. He was a student at Bellarmine University, majoring in music technology. He was a member of the music fraternity, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia (whose mission it is to foster fellowship through music education throughout the world) and a member of the International association of Jazz Educators (whose mission is to promote and preserve America's indigenous art form, Jazz music). He lived his life with passion, which showed in everything he touched his refined skills in the culinary arts where he spent 13 years working professionally at fine dining restaurants in the Louisville area, his interests in working with children which he shared during his work with the YMCA Child Enrichment Program, his love of the earth's resources and its many uses which he experienced by taking regular hikes exploring the land around the Louisville area and beyond, understanding its history and spiritual possibilities, his love of his family, and above all in his love of his wife and their treasured pets, Peanut, Roki, Basil, and Abby. Rob attended Outward Bound Leadership Course in the Cascade Mountains and in his youth spent time in the mountains of New Hampshire developing his skills and love of the outdoors. He was a graduate of the Youth Performing Arts School/ Dupont Manual High School, Louisville, where he majored in theater. He is survived by his wife, Amy Grace Bordogna; his parents, Bob and Elaine Bordogna; his sister and brother-in-law, Amy and Kelby Price; his grandfather, Fred A. Brown; and several loving aunts, uncles, and cousins. Visitation will be Tuesday evening at Pearson's Funeral Home, 149 Breckenridge Lane, Louisville, between 5-7 p.m. A memorial service will be held at the Chapel of Our Lady of the Woods on the Bellarmine University Campus, Louisville, on Wednesday at 10 a.m. At the request of his family, expressions of sympathy may be made to Wellspring House 1382 S.
