Dear Covert Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I never had the chance to meet your son but I do wish I could have. I am in 8th grade at Trinity Christian Acadamy and I represent the whole school. Since we had heard about the story we had kept Bobby and your family in our thoughts and prayers each day at school. I want to apoligize for all thats happend but just know that Bobby is spending time with God right now. I hope you guys will be comforted by all these letters.
love and thoughts

Dear Bobby, Carmen, and Lauren,
We are still stunned at everything that happened to Bobby. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. My son, Faurest, went to LTMS with Bobby last year and they rode the bus together. His older sister, Rebekah Quinn, was in several classes and Colorguard with Lauren. If there's anything else we can do for you, please let us know. May God continue to comfort, guide, and bless you all.
Sincerely,
Faurest Simmons II, Shaleen C. Simmons, Rebekah M. Quinn and Rachel L. Quinn

Dear Bobby, Carmen and Lauren,
Your faith in the face of the most difficult of circumstances has truly been a witness and I know that same faith will continue to sustain you in the days ahead. It is evident by the outpouring of love from so many in our community that Bobby was truly a very special young man and his spirit will continue to live on through the lives he touched.

I'm pretty sure you don't know me, but I was a good friend of Bobby's from the Clays Mill days. Its funny what you remember, the games at recess, his jewelry 'business', and just hanging out eating popcorn in Mr. Sheets class. Of all these memories that we shared, I always knew Bobby was a great person and the best friend one could have.
He will be sorely missed by all.
Coverts, you will be in our prayers and God bless.

Bobby and Carmen,
I worked at Clays Mill Elementary and remember how intelligent Bobby was and how he showed it during Quick Recall competitions. My daughter, Sydnee, always thought it was a lot of fun to be on the academic team with him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Even though this is the hardest time of your life, always remember that God will be beside you and will carry you through this entire ordeal.

Bobby & Carmen, I can only imagine the pain you feel. I have had both you and your family in my prayers and I know that Bobby is in a much better place. There are not words that can really console a parent at a time like this but know that your friends love you and are there for you. I didn't know your son but I have known you both a long time and if Bobby was anything like the two of you, he was a very special person and God has a very special place in Heaven for him.

To the Covert Family:
My daughter, Asona, went to LTMS with Bobby and she spoke highly of him. She was remembering the days they shared at "Third Street Stuff" when she attended LTMS. Unfortunately, I didn't have the honor of meeting Bobby, but my daughter made me feel like I did. Our prayers go up for each of you and may God continue to bless and be with each of you during your time of bereavement.
I wrote this poem a while back and I would like to share this with you all. God Bless you
Losing a child, I know is so hard to bare
As long as you keep the Faith, God will be there
God has a plan for you, just trust and believe
Send your prayers up, and blessing you will receive.
God never gives one more then they can spare
As long as you keep the Faith, God will be there.
Try not to think of Bobby as being gone
Just think of him as an Angel that has been called home.
When you are down and out and can not bare
Keep your Faith in the Lord, and he will be there.
Do not frown upon him as he lay in eternal rest,
Just know & believe that God knew for him what was best.
Although, he will be missed, in your hearts he will remain
Just knowing that one day you will be with him again.
And we will continue to wear our "Bobby pins"
