My dear Uncle Bobby will be deeply missed. I had the incredible fortune of spending quality time with him, and our conversations were always a source of love and peace. Uncle Bobby wasn't just an uncle to me; he was a special figure who provided the guidance and affection of both an uncle and a father. I will always cherish the memories of our talks.
One of his fondest wishes was to see me married and to walk me down the aisle. Every time we spoke, he would ask, "Have you found a man yet?" I would often respond, "Unfortunately, there are no good men in the DMV." His reply was always the same, "Oh no, you have to come back home and find yourself a husband."
Uncle Bobby will forever remain in my heart and will never be forgotten. Love you always, Genice.
