Dear Mrs. Carpenter and All Bobby's family... I was very fortunate to have known your son, father, brother, a long time when worked for the state in 1986 and again in 2005 driving with him for Ward hill. and I enjoyed many good times discussing or debating current events , music and various television shows and movies with him.
And what I'll miss Bobby the most for will be those times... he had talent for colorful conversation , as well as a remarkable felicity of expression especially when we both dissaproved of, or just out right hated something. He could really make me laugh. Ill miss him...and I grieve with all of you. may God bless you
