Bobby, I'm sorry for your loss. Unfortunately I never had the pleasure of meeting your brother but you spoke of him often. You and your family are in my prayers and thoughts during your time of grief. I just wanted you to know that I'm here for you my friend.

everyday that I come to work I miss him. he is usually in the lobby greeting everyone in the morning. I miss my buddy a lot. I miss his laugh, his singing, his smile, and just him in general. I miss him asking me a hundred times if I'm gonna shave him today or not. I'm used to making him a grilled cheese just to get him to eat lunch. I guess I had him spoiled but I enjoyed every moment of that. I'm sorry that this has happened. he will be missed so much and he is missed.
Sending my blessings and prayers to his wonderful family who I adore.
