Hello...
Although I've never met your beloved son, Bobby, or any of his family, my son, Matt, was friends with him. They shared the last several months together at LCL. My heart is breaking for your family. The last 6 months have been a nightmare for our family. I want you to know that I empathize with everything you've gone through over the years, and am so truly saddened by what has happened, just when things were finally beginning to look up. I live here at Harvey's Lake, so I am local, if you'd like to talk, or need anything. Matt is absolutely devastated, to say the least, by Bobby's passing. Please know that Bobby, along with your entire family, are in my thoughts, and I am sending you all the healing light and love I can possibly muster.
