Not sure what to say?

To all, I am saddened to hear of the passing of Bobby. He and I were once soldiers, friends, and active members of the 53rd Transportation Battalion, 83d Trans Co.. Bobby Lee Colbert clearly distinguished himself by his exemplary conduct, efficiency, and fidelity throughout his specified period of continuous active Federal military service. Bobby was an embodiment of what it means, and meant to be a soldier. To all please accept my sincere condolences in his passing and may “God Bless". ...

Bobby has been a part of our family for many years now. We remember the early years when we were young and choosing our Soul mates that we would marry and begin putting our lives together. For most of our families we did a pretty good job. Bobby had a kind and respectful spirit. We will miss him in the days ahead but not as much as his loving wife. Lynn we will be here for you just call. As death is showing it icy hand in our family we must support each other. We will put our trust in...
