I was sorry to hear of Bobby's passing. I was a long time tanning customer of his. He always treated every one great and worked hard to get every one in and out. Always friendly and in a good mood. I would like to give my condolences to his family. Rest in peace, good man.

Bobby was a good friend although we had lost touch the last several years though. We played a lot of basketball and softball together in past years. Bobby will be missed by all who knew him.
