I am just now reading about the passing of Bobby. My condolences to his family. I am the first born of Preslie & Irene Reed who were in the neighborhood. Bobby brought a tank of water for my parent's well that ran dry the very evening before my wedding. That would of been August 26, 1976. That was so appreciated!! Bobby, Sue and family were such a nice family/neighbor. Linda Rider
