Not sure what to say?

I only knew Bobby for the last few years. We played pool at the Sand Dollar on Sunday afternoon! He was always kind and respectful to myself and my son who was always with me! We often gave him rides to his home. In my book, he was a good friend.

We were Bobby's neighbors for the past two years, and I was fortunate to spend a lot of time with him cutting grass, building chicken coops, and working on his train set.

We have four children that Bobby loved, and they loved him. He insisted on nailing slats into my enclosed deck, covering all the openings he thought our smallest children might fall through. He also nailed railings into my bannisters outside, so he could climb the stairs more easily.

Gedney and family,
We send our condolences and are saddened in your grief. May God bless all of you in your loss.

Bobby was an extraordinary person with whom I was lucky enough to know. Bobby was my father's (Michael Cawley's) best friend from college at USC. The two of them together were magic...the stories they would tell were hysterical and showed their passion for life and mischief. I feel so lucky to have known him and will be forever grateful for the kindness he always showed me. I am sure he is with Michael right now telling stories and catching up on old times. My condolences to his friends...

I have really been down since hearing of Bobby's death. I was his roommate at Carolina. I would call him Barnabas from time-to-time-the son of encouragement, one of his best traits. He had a generous spirit and never met a stranger. I can imagine Bobby sitting at the Heavenly Bar and Grill with his old track coach, Weems Baskin, drinking whiskey and challenging each other to outlandish and hilarious tales. I loved the old fellow.
