Dearest Linda,at a time of sadness it's so hard to find words that might comfort you in any way. Many years of friendship just adds up so many memories. He was so congenial and was so easy to get along with. We all feel badly for you that you have to continue without him but somehow and in someway he will guide you along. God said, Come on Bobby, you deserve being with Me and don't worry Linda is going to continue her life looking up and will be having conversations with you. You can expect all of our prayers and love, Paul, Jackie and Betty.
