Dear Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. I went to school and graduated together at Sam Rayburn High with Bobby and have not been in touch with him in many years. He was a sweet young man in school and knowing his family I can be sure that he always was. Dale and I attended Burke Road Church for several years with his family members, Earl, Donna, and Mary and have tried to stay in touch with this beautiful family through Mary. We are so sorry that we did not learn of Bobby's death in time to give love and support in person. Just know that you are in our prayers.

Please accept my condolences. Bobby and I went to high school together and were in the same graduating class. We truly missed him at our 40th reunion in Oct, 2006 due to his illness. He will be greatly missed by all of us.

Please accept my condolences for the loss of Bobby. I worked with him in the Houston SF Foundation Claims Unit and found him to be an excellent Insurance Adjuster, mentor, exceptional man and friend. He often spoke proudly of his family. Bobby will be missed.
