As a father figure, & lately, a friend to myself, (not to mention his actual children) I would consider Bro. Bobby Jernigan one of the most sincere & kindest gentlemen That I ever had the pleasure to know. As teenagers coming up, Rob, Steve, & myself would always know we had a place to go where we could play, relax, where we could do what kids do, & just not have to worry about much. That was Bobby's house. He was always giving and generous to us as kids. We love him. I hate that I couldn't attend the services. Just wanted to send out my love & condolences to the family, & say Bobby's reached his home in heaven. God bless you all.
