My deepest sympathies to the family of my good friend Bobby.
I have known Bobby for twenty-five years and I never knew a more generous soul.
If anyone ever had a problem, Bobby was the man to call for advice.
If he couldn't help, he knew someone that could.
Bobby loved his family and treated his friends as though they were his family.
He will surely be missed.
Thank you Bobby.......
