Uncle Bobby and Aunt Donna, We are so sorry for your loss. I hope you can find peace in knowing that he was loved by so many. I will never forget all the memories of us growing up. I love you both so much.

•God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me." With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
