Not sure what to say?

Robert was my classmate at Christ The King elementary school in the sixties. I also remember his mother, Mahalia.

To the entire family and community we have lost a giant of a man. His heart was giving and helping when needed. We will all miss him, but his inheritance is with the Lord. Be encouraged.....

My thoughts and prayers are with the Bethea family during your grief of this significant loss. May God´s grace and your memories of wonderful times with Bobby warm your hearts and ease your pain.

So sorry that Bobby Bethea has left us to be with the Lord and his loved ones. He was such a GENTLEMAN with meaningful conversations when we greeted each other in church and in the community. Will certainly be MISSED by family, friends and associates. Rest in peace my brother...we will not forget you. You served our bereaved families in a CARING and dignified manner...as you late parents did. Rest in PEACE now!!

Special thanks to both Ava and Kay for sharing in the life of our Bobby as we affectionately called him. Bobby talked about his children all the time. Such a sweet spirit and humble being he was. Bethea, `The House of Care´ was the whole Hill´s funeral home for at least 6 decades. Bobby, himself, funeralized the majority of the families after his parent demised. Words cannot fully explain how we loved Bobby. The last text I received from Bobby was May 10, 2020 @ 10:19 AM. HAPPY...

My deepest condolences to the Bethea family. Bobby was a dear family friend. We were classmates and it is hard to process his passing. I will keep you in my prayers.

To the family of d Mr Bobby Bethea send my deepest condolences to you at this time may God continue to be with you at this time may God bless you all

Our heartfelt prayers and condolences to the family. Bobby was always a steadfast friend of my late husband Jimmy Frinks. Jay, our son, was 6 months old when Jimmy passed and had many questions about his father. Bobby shared insights with him about growing up as friends. Whenever we stopped by or called he was always hospitable and welcoming like it was just yesterday since we spent time together. Rest in peace Bobby Bethea,III.
