I was just thinking about the wonderful memories of growing up next door to Bobby and Mickey. So sorry to find this obituary. This picture is exactly how I remember grown up Bobby. Thanks to the Bourdeau family for so much fun and love growing up. RIP BOBBY
hoping to reconnect

He was kind to my 12-year old self when my own brother died. He had a black car back then that he was proud of but he did take my sisters and me for a ride, just once. Eternal rest God grant unto him, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

Of course I have a lifetime of memories of my younger brother. For one, I am sure that in this photo he is playing and singing one of his favorites "Pernaps Love" by John Denver

"Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home."

My dear Bobby may you rest forever in the place that is love
