Bobby was such a gentle spirit, and such a joy to work with. My condolences to his family.

Bobby will always be in our hearts. His friends at Goodwill will all miss his gentle spirit, fun-loving attitude and sweet smile. Our deepest condolences to his family, friends and each loved one.

Always remember the good times you all had with him and the great memories and all the lessons taught. His spirit will be alive within your hearts. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.

Bobby always made me smile. He was always happy, and I will always have a special place for him in my heart.

What happiness "Bobby" brought to each staff person at Goodwill. We adored having him and will always remember his genuine love for the simple things in life such as coffee and cookies. I'll always picture him smiling and dancing, which he loved to do. Thank you for sharing such a bright ray of light with us all. We should all be surrounded with such a gentle and positive presence like Bobby's. Take the best of care and don't hesitate if there's anything we can do for you.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.
