Just thinking of you. Rest easy Bob.

Happy Birthday, dearest Bobby. It's Leap Year, so today is your "true" birthday, and you would have been 72. You are so often on my mind, and today especially so. Just got off the phone with Cousin Brenda, and we shared some wonderful memories of you, which is helping me get thru today. Keep wishing you were here, miss you so much. All my love.

Dear Bobby. Today would have been your 71st birthday. I had a long talk with your cousin Brenda, which helped a lot. She loved the glass niche I did for you. We both love you and miss you so.

We only met Bob once when we brought Maralee's Mom to Vegas for her 90th birthday. In the few days we were there, Bob seems to be a quiet, kind and gentle person. We have a great family picture with Bob smiling and enjoying the day. May memories bring you peace and comfort. Extending deep and heartful sympathy to all.

Dancing was always our favorite activity, and thru the years we almost always danced at least once a week. In the early years at the end of one of our dances, Bobby lifted me up off my feet and spun me around, so passionate, one of my all-time favorite moments in life. It was a joy to...

Please accept my condolences on Bob's passing. Although I never had the pleasure of knowing him I believe my family was somewhat intertwined with his in years past. Wayne Mathis and my Father John B. Browning, were first cousins and Tommy, I believe would be my second cousin, and he used to let me in free at the Monitor drive in theater many years ago when I was a teenager. I only learned recently that Tommy passed away a few months ago. His Uncle Frank taught me to box in my early teens. I...
