I can't believe it's been almost 12 years since we lost you granddaddy. Momma was telling us stories of your absolutely crazy times in Alaska... You truly was one of a kind. I miss you so so much. You wouldn't believe how big Bubba is now. It breaks my heart you didn't get to watch him grow up. I know y'all would of been like two peas in a pod. He says and does little things here and there that remind me so much of you. Adam and Tricia are doing great you would be so proud of both of them! Adams married now with two children, he is a great dad! And Tricia she's officially a RN and is engaged, she's doing so well! Mom and Dad are doing good too. We have these moments where as a family when you get brought up we all get excited to tell each other the stories we have with you. You're truly missed so much down here but we all know we will see you again! I love you granddaddy so much I miss you more then I could ever say.

Dear Uncle Bobby,
I know we did not communicate much but when we did it was memorable!
I am sorry I did not pick your brain for precious memories that you could have shared with me and that I could have passed on! What a great personality you had! One of the things that is closest to my heart is when you brought my Dad (Rudy) to my daughter's (Leslie)wedding,Nov.29, 1997! I will never forget how special that was for me! He would not have been able to attend had it not been for you! You and dad were the only two members of my family there! Thank you again from the bottom of my heart! I love you and will never forget you! Your niece,

From Alaska to Bristol we shared fun times, serious times, difficult times, but most always enjoyed each other company. My deepest condolences to Pam, my daughters Tiffany and Tricia and to everyone in Bob's Family and Life. God Bless You Bob. Love, Dave
