Everyone who knew you - loved you. The kids thought the world of "Pa Pa Bob!" and so did I. You were kind, warm and generous - If you had it, you would give it. When we would come and visit, even if you were not feeling well, you greeted the kids with a smile and a hug. You are loved and missed deeply.

The farm will never be the same without Uncle Bobby! Lots of great memories. Jim loved having someone to watch football with at the farm & Kate just loved you! We know that you are in a much better place. We will not be able to attend the funeral b/c baby Bass is ready to arrive. We will be thinking of you and everyone else who loved you dearly.

I have many fond memories of watching Bobby play with my brother Jim. They were the "older kids" among the cousins when we were growing up in Houston. We will miss him. Saddens me to realize that I have lost my first cousin, but so happy he is spending his time now in heaven.
