Not sure what to say?

Bobby was a great neighbor. I’d stop in, check on him, bring him meats and end up there for an hour or more listening to his stories while some old western show played in the background probably for the 100th time. Sometimes he’d pull up here at 7am honking his horn and waking me up lol just to bring us some snacks or drinks that he couldn’t have. I learned a lot about the area from conversations with him. He will be missed. Rest in peace Bobby.


Rest in peace Bobby.

You will be missed by many, Bobby. I always loved the times the family sat around Joyce's kitchen with all of us talking. Going camping and fishing with the family. Joyce was always scared at dark. As soon as it got dark she was inside her tent for the night. I'm gonna miss all of you that have gone before us. Joyce, Junie, Merle, Needy and now you. I would come to your funeral, but health wise I can't. So many good memories over a lifetime and I hope you found your peace in life as now in...
