I'm so sorry about Bobby! I missed hearing about Threasa's death in 2006 because my own husband had died a month before, and now I missed Bobby's death because I've been dealing with other family matters. My husband just loved hearing his stories and was often down on his back porch. I thought something was missing from our neighborhood!
