I didn't know Bobby well but during the time I lived in Charlotte he was a good friend and neighbor. Heaven gained a new angel.

Dear Ketchie Family, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this sad time. I will always remember Bobby as the fun-loving, kind child that I was fortunate to be in the company of when we all went on the trip of a lifetime to the Grand Canyon many years ago. May the knowledge that Bobby is with his Heavenly Father bring you comfort in your grief.

You were all blessed to be touched by such a special son, brother, husband and father. While he will be missed physically, he will always be with you as he lives in your hearts. May God bless you all with the comfort only He can provide. Keep his fighting spirit alive.

Philippians 1:21
"For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain."
This was Bobby. He knew the Lord and the Lord knew him therefor he is basking in the Glory of our Blessed Savior Jesus Christ. For this we can rejoice. He will be missed in this world but we will see him again.
Psalm 116:15"Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His saints."

Bobby was one of the kindest people I knew during my time at Wofford. His smile was truly contagious. I will be lifting up his entire family in prayer during this difficult time.

Bobby and I were at Wofford together. My friends and I affectionately referred to him as "Fun Bobby." We always had a good time together. He was a caring, fun loving, wonderful guy. Although I have not seen him in years, I will miss him and think of him often. My prayers are with his wife, children, and family.

As the "scrubs" on the Wofford tennis team, Bobby and I played each other about every day for 2-3 years in a row. While we always had good, competitive matches, I'll most remember Bobby for his fun-loving attitude and spirit. He had a zeal for life, and was always uplifting to everyone around him. My condolences, and thoughts and prayers are with his family in this time of loss. God bless.

Our sincere condolences to the extended Ketchie family. Bobby made the world a better place! I had the honor of working with him in his post-college days many years ago.
