Robert Anthony Arena
Born February 21, 2022, born to eternal life March 12, 2022, he spent all of his 19 days in the loving arms of his parents and the care and comfort of the nurturing staff of both Children’s Hospital Orange County (2/21-3/3) and then Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (3/3-3/12). During his time with us, Bobby touched many lives and was loved deeply by family and friends. Bobby was fond of listening to music and hearing stories from his parents, family, and friends. He enjoyed his baths, holding hands with mommy and daddy, and being held in their arms.
