Since the day my father passed i could not find the word to express what i wanted to say so,, here it goes..if you knew my father than you know he could get under your skin and make you laugh while doing it,, he was bobby!! i was not able to be at his service and thats one of my many regreats that i will have to live with when it comes to my dad. I keep thinking about the good times, my 21st bday, the time he spent with family and friend..i did not get to see my father as much as i wish i could of but, i do know that he loved his family ,kids and grandbabys very much..i wish i could of had just one more min with him, he left us all at such a young age and theres not a day or a min that i dont think about him and miss him so much. he was one of a kind and will be missed.

I offer strength to his family and friends, of which I was one. Bobby always had that infectious smile that would turn your frowns upsidedown. I met Bobby with the Raiders Connection Fan Club and the Sport's Connection Party Bus Trips that would get together at Del Rio bar. Boy we had some great times, I'm smiling now thinking of them. Bobby and I drifted away from each other as we pursued more personal business ( our families). Each promising we would get together and have drink for ol' times sake. We never did. I wish we could have.

To his wife and children, Bobby was one of the good guys. Loyal, true to his word and a great guy to know. We were buddies. In fact there was over 20 of us that were all good friends. Bobby was special. He and his pick-up truck and camper ... and there were some good and funny times.

I am proud to have known him and been able to have called him "friend".

May God bless you at this special time with strength, compassion and love.
