You were just like a father, a grandfather, and my great uncle all wrapped in one. I miss you so much uncle bobby, this still doesn't feel real. I feel you everywhere I go though and you came to me in my dream. Thank you for that. I love you so much, not a day goes by that I don't think of you, you were the biggest inspiration in my life. You molded me into the woman I am today. <3 forever in our hearts...our silent but kindhearted angel...Robert a. Fox
