Not sure what to say?

Edward I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I enjoyed picking his brain about cars and about life in general. He was known in this area as "the Ford man". If you had a problem with a Ford and didn't know what to do, call Bobby. He was always there to help. He was a good man and I know he'll be missed. I used to think that a man's legacy was his children. But I've come to the conclusion that is more than that. It's the many hearts he's touched in life. Your dad touched a lot of people's hearts.

Willie, Janet and Edward
We were so sorry to hear about Bobby. We will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers. God be with each of you and give you strength and peace.

BOBBY WAS A WONDERFUL FRIEND WHO TAUGHT ME MANY THINGS FOR WHICH I AM GREATFUL. I AM TRULY SORRY FOR OUR LOSS, PRAY GOD WILL COMFORT YOU DURING THIS TIME.

So very sorry for your loss! May God comfort you; May He bring you peace and strength for each and every day.

With Much Love - Todd, Robbie, & Stephen Hartsell
