Uncle Bobby was one of the best and kindest people I’ve ever known. He loved and cared about so many people, and IS loved by many many people.
He was one of those people that would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it.
I know he was always asking Dad about how I was doing. I always asked Dad about him too. He will be missed by many.

I am so sorry for the loss of such a wonderful man, husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He was always so kind to me growing up next to you guys and put up with oh so much out of all of us silly girls. My heart will forever hold a special place for this precious soul. I pray God wraps his arms around you all in the days and years to come keeping you safe and comforted. I love you all
