He was such a good soul, and I am so sad to hear of his passing. We used to greet each other by saying howdy partner. He always had a story to tell. Robert will be missed greatly

Bobby was my former neighbor from years ago and a dear friend of mine. I will always cherish the laughs we had. I know he's drinking some Jameson in heaven and smiling down on us. Love you friend! Candyce
