Uncle Bobby, I miss you so much. Bobby would travel from Richmond Virginia To Atlanta to visit my Grandmother (His Sister) Mandy Wilson and (Brother In law) Claude Wilson. We enjoyed all the laughter each and every visit when you would come down to see us. We love you. Rest In peace. God Bless .

Unc, you will be sorely missed by both your immediate and extended families. I regret not being able to spend more quality time with you, but I will truly cherish the time we had. God saw fit to relieve you of this world's woes and there will always be a vacant spot in the lives you touched. Say hello to all the ones that have gone on before, Grandaddy J.B., Ma Laura, Aunt Cille, Aunt Lizzie, Bro, Lenora, etc. Take your rest, Unc. FOR THE GOOD TIMES!!!!!

My deepest sympathy to the Battle Family.

Mr Bob was a good neighbor to me. There were many times when I had out of town guests, he would offer his backyard as additional parking. He will truly be missed!!

I pray that God will bring comfort to your hearts during these difficult times.
