I have known Bobby since we were both born in 1935 and lived next door until my family moved in 1944. We took tap dancing and expression together as pre-schoolers. We always went to the double feature on Saturday and loved all the Western stars. We continued our friendship through the years and the last visit in person was for his 70 th Birthday at his ranch in Fairburn. In his last year we often called one another just to say Hi and always ended our conversation with" I love you". I will miss him but so fortunate to have been his close friend.His mother Pearl and my mother remained best friends for many long years.I have sent a few photos of us to Scott.
