Bobby had a smile and dimples that would light up the room when he walked in. I loved hearing about his 2 pride and joys, his car and Chris. I remember him talking about Chris and him playing basketball and him hating to admit that Chris wooped his butt. Thoughts and prayers to all of his family and friends. He will be greatly missed.
