Not sure what to say?

How I think about you is a regular occurrence, our family will never be the same. We lost 5 of the best card players in our family..time is so fleeting here, but I know time doesn't happen in heaven.. I remember when I had a birthday party and you sat under a table which was covered, and the gist of the joke was your idea, I was sitting behind the table and when a friend would sit down I had to ask them, what's the first thing you do in the morning, and the usual answer was brush my teeth,...

My prayers are with the the Deroche
family. Mike Warren...

I'll always remember Uncle Bobby as a fun loving jokester that always had a smile on his face and kept everyone around him laughing. He reminded me so much of his father, Paw Paw Collins. My heart is happy that he is no longer suffering and reunited with his good ole Paw, Mother Ruby and all the other loved ones that have gone on to a better place. I will be praying for peace and healing for Aunt Sherri, his children and everyone that will miss him so much.

Robert: I am so sorry to hear about your father. Please know you are in our thoughts.

Your brother, Ronnie and I will always miss you. We will cherish the good times we had together. Especially, the card games. You were always so much fun to be around. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and you family. With all of our love, Ronnie and Narcile

Robert raised a wonderful family. He should be proud. My sympathy to each of them. Especially to Sherry and Robert Jr.
