Bobby was a great person, he always made me laugh. He loved his family and cherished friends. He welcomed me into the Fraternity family twenty years ago and now I know he is welcomed into the Kingdom of heaven. I will miss him very much, his laugh, hospitality and his strong spirit. He will be in my heart always. I pray for Mary Jane and the rest of his family may God give you all peace.
