Robert R. "Cowboy Bob" Kelley

He was a great wrestler.

You were the "Hero Cowboy along with Ken Lucas" Ive wrote a book...Lived in 6 countries and now working in China for over 28 years but will never forget what you guys did as I grew up watching the both of you...You were never to busy to "Sign Anything" or talk to a 8 year old who was to scared to walk up to you but you came to me and I always knew the "Good guy and bad guy" and I loved it so much that out in the stands...Both Black-White would be cheering for the same person.Gulf Coast...

Rest in Peace Bob - thank you for your friendship and guidance. I love you partner.

I met Bob for the first time in February 2014 prior to my dad's (Jack) induction into the Gulf Coast Wrestling Hall Of Fame. He invited me to his home and I was given a tour. It was obvious that he loved three things. His wife,family and profession.
I will always remember his congeniality and kindness and the night my dad was admitted into the Hall of Fame along with "Cowboy Bob Kelley".It was an honor to know they were inducted together.They were not only colleagues but...

So sorry for your lost. May he rest in peace.

Thanks for the memories. You were such an inspiration in Hattiesburg, Ms. Great to have known you and your many kindnesses to all.

Going to miss you Champ!!

Bob, I cannot say how much I miss you already. Thank you for the wonderful friendship, the encouragement and inspiration all these years.

Enjoy the rest and the reward you so richly deserve!

Grant him rest in the Eternal, O Lord; let Light Perpetual shine upon him!
