How do I say goodbye to my precious Papa Bob? Knowing you all of my life brought me hours of laughter and joy. I now treasure each song we ever sang and every cowboy story you ever told me. Thank you for teaching me to look both ways when I crossed the street and how to tie my first bow. These are moments that will forever be in my heart. And yes, you do hold my heart in your hand forever until we meet again ..
