Dear Steve, Monica, Gerald, and family -- I am saddened to hear of Bobby's passing and want you to know that my prayers are with you. May fond and loving memories of his life bring you comfort and laughter that lasts a lifetime.

Shelley and I were very saddened to hear of Bobby's passing. Bobby was my Dad's best friend and I have so many memories of them calling one another during Redskins games. Bobby was with my Dad when he passed away and shared precious and comforting thoughts with me and Shelley about my Dad before he took his final breath. He wrote me and Shelley such a heart-warming letter after my Dad's passing, a letter we hold dear to this day. May the God of all comfort, comfort your family at this difficult time. I'll miss Bobby's smile and sense of humor.
Vicki and Shelley

I love all of you
