Dear Leona, Fred, Ricky, Brandon, and all of Bobby’s family. Bobby was such a great friend to Jerm, Haley, and I. He was always there if we needed help with anything and we are going to miss him so much. Lots of good times we shared with our friend Bobby. It saddens me a lot that I’m not able to be at the service today but I sure will be thinking about him. Our prayers and thoughts are with the all of you! Jenny
Brandon, Ashton, Leona, Fred and all of the family I was deeply saddened to hear of Bobby’s passing. He was such a great guy! Anytime I needed help with something he never hesitated to be there and do it with a smile.We would then laugh lots and give me a hard time as it was something usually completely off the wall and crazy! He was a great cousin, neighbor and friend. I didn’t know anyone who didn’t like him. Remember all the great and fun times! Treasure and hold them close and dear as through these he will live on through each and everyone of you! He is now a special ‘Guardian Angel’ looking down over everyone and smiling cuz that’s the kind of person he was! You are all in my thoughts and prayers in this difficult time! He definitely was called too soon! Love Larry, Mary, Lauri, Todd, Erika, Luka and Gavin
