There is not a memory, a story, or even a fishing tale that does not involve you in one way or another. Most of my greatest times in my life were with you my brother. You will forever be alive in my heart.

I just found out that Bobby is no longer with us. I am deeply saddened with the news. I went to Garrett elementary, Tutt middle, and Westside high school with Bobby. He was always very pleasant. I never saw him upset, mad, or disgruntled about anything.
You couldn't ask for a better guy to get to know...my sympathy goes out to the Foster family.

I didnt even know that such a great guy had left us in this world. Someone that was a joyous soul. I went to westside and Bobby was in my ROTC classes. Im in Kansas City now and came home for a visit. I found out the news of his passing shortly after I got home I am deeply saddened for your loss.

Everyone knew Bobby was a kid at heart and I think we could learn a lesson that just because we are "grown up" and have duties and jobs, and wives, and husbands, and morgages, and bills and all the other boring things life hands us that we should never let go of the child within all of us. Playing laser tag, bying 3 for 1 fire crackers the week after new years, going bowling with friends and family. those are the things I remember bobby for, not how smart he was, and not how good of a cook he was, and not how good of a husband, uncle, brother, son he was. But how good of a friend he was and how much of a kid we all are inside.

I'm sorry for your loss. He was a great guy. I remember the first time me shauna and bobby all got together. Bobby cooked for everyone he was very talented. He and I talked a while about cooking becuse i enjoy it as a hobbie. I remember him being very funny because on another occasion me and shauna were discussing the arguements of my relationship at the time and Bobby told me the secret to it all was "she's always right" he said that rule would make any relationship work. again i'm very sorry for your loss he was a good person and he will be missed.

It's unfortunate that this had to happen to such a kind, sweet guy. I know you will be watching over everyone from above and helping them to be better people. I remember the first time I met you at Shauna's apartment at Georgia Southern and you kept looking at her with such love in your eyes and you were so proud to tell me about how you loved to cook her dinner. I also remember at Shauna's bridal shower when I brought ya'll a paper shredder and Shauna just laughed and said "Bobbby's so funny" because apparently you had been so excited to pick out and scan the gifts for the bridal registry that you even picked out a paper shredder. Look after Shauna for us. You will be greatly missed.

To the Foster family:

I just wanted to say that my thoughts and prayers are still with you. Bobby was one of the most giving people I have ever met. He could always make me laugh, and he would do anything to lift my spirits when I was down. I will always treasure him as a friend, and I will never forget how wonderful he was, not only to me, but to everyone around him! You could not ask for a more golden soul than his.

Cherie, Wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this sad time. Remember that God will be with you always!!!!! Love ya, Sherry P. Maddox

January 29, 2008

This is so har for me to do!!! I still can not believe you are gone Bobby....but I know you are in better place and you are not suffering anymore. When I found out I was shocked, upset and so many emotion went through one thing I did not understand how God could let something like this happened at such a young age. I came to realize that I can not continue to be upset and mad at God for his work. We all have our time when we leave this earth we just do not know when, where, or the time. It was just awesome to know someone like Bobby, he treated me like a brother if I need anything, somewhere to stay, or just someone to talk too. Thats just how Bobby was but if you see where came from and the family he has, you know why Bobby was the way he was and very caring....I love Bobby and he family. He left a lot of upset hearts but everyone must stay strong and Thank God and cherish the good memories we had together, Like one of my friends said down here before I left to go home for the funeral and to be with the family, He said I only hang out with the best and thats right Bobby was the best in everything he did. RIP Bobby and I Love You!!!!

Shauna,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Even though i didn't know Bobby very well he was a great guy and will be missed by all. I could tell he really loved you for who you are and he was a nice guy and very funny! I love you and miss you my favorite out of state cousin!

It is ao hard to know where to begin and what to say. The first time Bobby came to Louisiana I remember him leaving quite rattled. He had a dream his last night here about Shauna's Uncle David's death. Bobby felt somehow connected to this man he had never met. I imagin them together now and it makes me smile. They would have been close on earth. They were both so much fun to be with. So passionate about thier loved ones. So great with children. So much alike were these two men who were taken from our family too soon. Shauna, you are so incredibly strong. So very beautiful. I admire you so much. You are going to do great things. Bobby is there beside you always! You made him so proud. I love you so deeply as I do all of my neices and nephews. Bobby was my nephew in every way. I loved him.

Shauna, We have been thinking of you alot. Bobby was a great guy and we will all miss him. We are so sorry for your loss. We know you loved Bobby very much, just as he loved you. He will always be with you in your heart. There are no words that I can say that will make you feel better so I'm not going to try. Just remember that we are all here for you any time you need us. Emily wants to say hello and let you know that she loves you. Words can't express the sorrow we feel for you. Love you,

Dear Shauna, we barely know you, but you may remember us as the neighbors of Mike and Anna in Texas. We are so so so sorry for your tremendous loss. No words can express and no words really even soothe the pain in your heart--unfortunately there is no magic phrase or magic pill. Thank God that Mike and Anna and the girls are able to wrap their arms around you! God is good about knowing what we need right when we need it. I hope this brings you comfort in some way. I've needed it several times already in my 38 years: "The Lord heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds."Psalm 147:3 "The Lord is near those who are broken hearted, and He heals those who are crushed in their spirit." Psalms 34:18
Please know that 'strangers'(us and our Bible Study group) are praying for you in Texas on Tuesday nights.

Hey Shauna! Just wanted to let you know that we are thinking about you and that we love you very much! I only got to meet Bobby a few times, but from what I saw he was a wonderful person and lets not forget a big kid...lol! I'm sure that Bobby will be missed greatly and that he will never be forgotten! He will live on forever in all our hearts and minds! You are an amazing person and I'm so proud of you for being as brave as you've been through all of this! We will always be here for you if you ever need anything! Things will get better with time, it may not be anytime soon, but it will get better! Everyone who cares about you will make sure that you make it through this as easily as possible! We send you lots of love!!

Shauna, I cannot imagine what you are going through, but I DO know what a great young man Bobby was. In the few short years I've known Bobby, I know that he was a great young man and always willing to help everyone in need. He was a giving young man, always made us laugh and always, always loved you. He showed it in every way a man could show a woman. The glee in his eyes when he talked about you and to you. He will always be remembered as a sweet, soft young GENTLEMAN. Love you, Aunt Donna

Hey Shauna,
It's Aunt Rhonda and I was thinking of you and Bobbie so I decided to write to you all. I spent all day Sunday thinking of ya'll and yet it is still unbelievable. I want to be honest and tell you that when I first met Bobby I was not the most supportive person in the world. But as time passed Bobby grew on me and I could see your love for him everytime you looked at him or said his name. So it came to be that you 2 became 1 and were as happy as could be. No one knows why he had to go but I am sure that he is the most helpful person in heaven. He was good to everyone and great with kids. He also loved you very, very much. This love will never leave you but it will help to heal you as you move forward in your life. Look for the shining stars and know that each was sent by Bobby and this will help you through. I also admire the strong person that you are (any woman who can speak at their husband's services is very profound)and pray that you use this strength to get you through this heart saddened event.
With all our love, spirit, and prayers,
Aunt Rhonda & Uncle Joe
XOXO We miss you and Bobby XOXO

Well Bobby, I just can't believe this is real and that you're gone! I am so sad! You were a great guy! All the kids loved you, you were like Pa Joe, like you had a scent on that told the kids to like you! One thing I always noticed about you and Shauna was how happy and in love you were! That is rare to find even in married couples! You two were always laughing and having fun! I admire that and hope to be like that more! I know you were everything to Shauna but she is so strong and I know she will be ok! Like she said at the funeral God needed you more than we did, you fulfilled your mission on this earth to love Shauna for the short time you were able to and bring so much fun and happiness into everyones lives that knew you!! Joseph, and the boys and I will miss you greatly!! Love, Jen Bell

Shauna, Cherie, Dan, Steven, and all others who love Bobby.
We all know how wonderful Bobby was. I don't have to tell you all twice. He will always be loved and cherished and I was blessed to even know him. I'm forever grateful to him for making my sister so happy. Cherie and Dan you two raised an excellent son and you should be very proud of the man he became. He did not have his own children but he is the only "father" my kids ever knew and I thank him for that. Whatever you guys need I am here for you. Just call and I will be there. You will always be our family no matter what. I love you all and I will see you soon.

Shauna,
Let me tell Bobby's friends what kind of person he was. I lost my daughter Marsha Arnold Oct. 26, 2007.Bobby and Shauna came to the house and spent a week. They were the greatest kids I know, Bobby cooked and Shauna cleaned. If I said I needed something Bobby was right on it. He was the most loving man I know. He never complained about being here, he ran to the store if we needed it. Him and Shauna were great.
I love you two kids alot
Nanny!

Words aren't enough to express to the Foster family the sorrow at Bobby's passing. Though I didn't know him long, like everyone who knew him, I was impressed with his kindness, humor, and great cooking. Even more than that, I was impressed with Bobby's and Shaun's deep love for each other. He will live on in our memories and won't be forgotten...

Bobby,

I am deeply sad to know that you are no longer with us. You were a genuine soul, and that is what made us friends. I always enjoyed your company and your uplifting attitude. We had some fun times together. I am thankful to have had a person like you in my life........You will be sorely missed.

Bobby, Brother...you have been and always will be family. We have thousands of memories together. I can go on forever talking about them, and they will always be cherished memories. These are hard times, but hey...we know T.J. was up there waitin on you when you got there. We know you're okay, and he showed you around. Sad we lost another one of our boys...one of the best of us. Bro, Shawna will be okay, we are helpin her out, and we'll help her pull through...she won't be alone, we promise! We know you will be our guardian angel...Now we have two, you and T.J. You will be missed brother!

Bobby will never be forgotten no need to worry about that. He was a really cool guy the thing i liked most about bobby was that he was always down for whatever. when he came to louisiana with shauna to visit i always had such a good time we always found something to do. he never like to be bored that's for sure. Boring would be the last word used to describe him. all of us cousins always went bowling whenever he and and shuana would come down here. when i was fifteen he let me drive his new magnum in front of the bowling alley where this group of girls my age was standing so i could try to impress them.we went fishing, swimming, had an airsoft gun war, played board games(which he didnt like to lose one time he got mad when we were playin scrabble at uncle dales house because i made the word autozone and he said that i couldnt use a name of a store we argued about it and i thought he was going to beat me up but i know he wouldnt)we made so many trips to walmart and target and he always found something to buy he came into our family and fit right in with joseph and me he was ready anytime to have some fun. fun is what i think about when i think about bobby. he was just a really fun guy to be around. and he loved my cousin shauna so much. Shauna i love you just remember how you said at the funeral that there are so many people who loved bobby which is very true just as many people are here that love you and that you can lean on right now. and it is so unfair that this happened but God loves you your family in la loves you and are here for you. you said before we left there how everyone else is going back to there lives at home and you're left there without bobby who was your life but although my daily routines of life are the same and are back to normal my life wont be the same knowing that he's gone and knowing the pain youre going through right now i've been thinking about you so much love ya

Bobby,

We will never forget the weekend you and Shauna spent with us this past summer. You scared me (Kelly) half to death driving and you made us one of the most wonderful meals we've ever had. We had so much fun sharing our home with you and Shauna that weekend and had hoped to do it again for many years to come, however it seems as though God had other plans. We will never know why such a beautiful soul was taken so early, but one thing that you can be sure of is that beauty, that kindness, and that compassion you held in your heart has affected so many people in ways you never could've imagined, ways that have definitely changed our lives forever. We will love you always and will always remember the time God allowed us to spend with you, however short it may have been.

Love Always.

Dear Cherie,
My heartfelt sympathy to all the family. Although I never knew Bobby (he sure does look like you)I'll always remember you being there for me when my Dad died delivering food,flowers and your memories of his famous Saturday pancake breakfasts.
I remember you mother fondly when I look at photos of our wedding cakes. She is buried just a few steps away from dad. If you've ever seen extra flowers on the grave and wondered how they got there,it was me. You can be assured that she and Bobby will be keeping each other company and smiling down on you. I know your heart is broken now while at the same time it's bursting with pride and love when all the memories of Bobby come pouring in. You and your family will continue to be in my prayers. I feel badly that we've lost touch after the high school years. We shared many good times together. Rejoice for the 28 years that Bobby lived.
With love and prayers,

I've never met a couple as perfect as Shauna and Bobby. From the first day I met Shauna & then Bobby there was an instant connection and I knew we'd always be friends. Since then our friendship has grown and they have become family. Saying Goodbye to my friend and brother will be one of the hardest things i've had to do ever.

Shauna, i'm always here for you and will be there in a heartbeat if you need me. There isn't anything i wouldn't do for you. I love you so much. We'll take this one moment at a time and eventually things will get better. They won't ever be the same but they'll get better. You are one of the strongest people I know, even though you don't feel it right now. You have a support system that will never end. We won't ever forget Bobby because he'll live through you in our hearts and memories.

Cherie, You've given me the best gift you ever could by allowing me to be a part of your family and introducing me to Shauna and Bobby. I won't ever be the same now that I'm apart of the family. Each day is better than the next and I know we'll pull through this together and become stronger than ever before. Thank you for all that you have given and done for me. I'm forever grateful and will always be here for you when you need me.

Bobby I know your in heaven watching over us and keeping us safe. I promise we'll watch over Shauna and give her all the support she needs. You are a great man and will be forever missed. It's too soon to say goodbye but I know in another place and another time we'll be reunited. Thank you for all the friendship and love you've shown me. I'm proud to have been a part of your life. I love you Bobby Foster.

Forever in my thoughts and prayers.

May God be with you in your time of sorrow. I did not know Robert but my Son, Robert Jeffords did. They met when my Son was working there from the Home Office in N.J.
He told my wife and I how kind and hospitable your Son was to him. They reconized the good in each other and were instant friends. My son emailed me today and let me know what happened. I replied to him with the following,

Mom and I both cried after reading your email, What can you say at a time like this? He saw what a good person you are and instantly made you a friend for life. You and Mark must be very sad. I feel as though God puts each of us through these tests as we go through our life on earth to prepare us for eternal life in Heaven. God's ways are not our ways, we will never understand why things happen -not until we see God face to face in Paradise.

Your friend was a good man who had many friends and made a positive connection with those who knew him. There may be someone who knew him who will in some way change the world for the better, just like he did.

Cherie, Danny, Shauna, Lou, Ann and family. My words can't express what
you need to hear at such a time, but
know that each of you are in my prayers
for the Lord Jesus to comfort and carry
you with His Love through your loss.
He paid such a high price that His
Holy Spirit would be your comfort when you need Him, and He saw your
need when He walked up calvary.
May the though that those who have
gone before us to Him are not only
in our past but also in our future.
Love, Elaine

God never leaves nor forsakes us. He knows our needs before we even ask him. He carries us in our most dire of situations and he is glorified in the end and we are healed.

Your smile and laughter will be greatly missed. I don't believe you ever met a person that you didn't like. You made everyone around you happy to be in your company. There's a hole in many hearts now that you're gone. Keep an eye on your wife from up above. My sympathy and prayers are with your family.

Bobby, I can't believe that your gone. I wake up everyday thinking that it was just a bad dream. Even though we haven't really spoken in a few years, I'll miss you so much. I have so many memories of you. Your humor, your charm, your giving soul. Only the good die young..that rings true. You truly were a beautiful person. You would do anything for anyone. I bet you're up there right now wearing out the video games and cooking God some good stuff. You always were a living angel..now your an angel in Heaven and I know that I'll see you again someday. I love you Bobby. You will be missed by sooo many people. To Cherie, Dan, Shauna, Steven, & the rest of the family...I'm so sorry & you're in my thoughts and prayers.

I can't begin to express my deep sympathy for the loss of a loving husband and son. But take comfort in knowing that he is in a better place smiling down upon you. Keep him in your heart, and he will never truly leave you. I didn't have the pleasure of personally knowing your Bobby, but I was a fellow employee here at ADP, and I have seen him in and around the office. I do know he was respected by his team mates, and is sorely missed. My family will keep all of you in our prayers.

Words can not express how I am feeling about the loss of a friend I have had for a short time. When I met Bobby on Februaruy 6, 2006, I never thought that I would end up taking pictures at his wedding nor did I think that I would become close friends with his family. Shauna you know that I love you and I will not only be there to continue to take pictures for you, but to be your friend as well. Cherie my heart goes out to you and your family. This is a difficult time and it is going to take a long time to heal. But always look towards the heavens and you will find comfort in knowing that is where OUR Bobby is. I love you all.

You are in my thoughts and prayers,

I just don't know what to say. I'm sorry just doesn't seem enough. Always remember "what God brings us to, he will bring us through". Our thoughts and prayers are with you right now. Remember you are loved and let your family and God help you through this. Let us know if you need anything. (I'm Aunt Glenda's Sister)
