Hi dad, It has been a very lonely year without your presence. I can not stress enough how much i/we miss you. Not a day goes by when i am not thinking of you, i try not to cry in front of the kids but sometimes i can't help it. The kids are doing fine in school and are still active with their sports. Ja'Dyn wants to play something so bad but he is not quit old enough yet, Kamron is getting big and i am in the process of potty training but he is really stubborn,and miss Brook'Lyn is trying to walk and has 3 teeth now. I know you weren't here to see her physically, but i know you are watching her every move. I will make sure she knows what a wonderful dad/grandfather you were and how much you meant to this family. I love and miss you so dearly.
R.I.P.
Love Chonna and the kids

Hey dad,
Well as you know a year has passed and we all miss you so. Your memories will never go away. I guess you can say that I am doing ok could be better but seems like when you left everything left with you. Sometimes we try to bring that spunk back into the family but it is not the same without you. We all miss you dearly and we all have little things of yours to remind us on how things used to be for us. You will always be in my memories.
Love Ramona

You have always been like a father to me. It seems like yesterday we were laughing and talking. Now all I have is memories but they are all special to me and I cherish them deeply. See you when I get there!!! Love you, DAD!!!

BOBBY, when GOD called you to join HIM and the rest of the family I couldn't understand it, but all I know is that I miss you. I spend my evenings at home wishing you were here with me. I try to keep and teach all the things to the boys that we taught our kids and make sure they will never forget you. IF you could see Brooklyn you would be so happy that we finally got "our baby girl". i know that one day we shall meet again and we will be happy once more because right now I'm missing my best friend. YOU WILL ALWAYS REMAIN IN MY HEART, SAUNDRA

Well dad we just finished another hot summer of track. Of course it was well worth the sweat to see the boys get out there and do their best and bring home some medals. They even had little Ja'Dyn on the field doing warm-ups and sprints. If only you could have been there to see him and his little legs working the track. I know you were watching him the whole time anyway. Now it's off to football, I tell you they are keeping me on my toes with these sports. I know you are proud of them and of me for trying to be the best mom that I can be. I/we love and miss you oh so very much. Talk to you soon. Chonna

Well dad another holiday has passed without you. I can not speak or even express the sadness of my brother and sister's on this father' day, but it was very tough for me to handle. This is still so unreal to me and very painful to deal with on a daily basis. I brought the boys and little Ms. Brook'lyn to see you, we all just look down and said hello in some way. Kamron even gave you a high five, Brook'Lyn just slobbered,and the other kids made sure you were clean. It won't be too much longer before we get that headstone. Always know that you are missed but not forgotten. Love Chonna,Brandon,Monte',Ja'Dyn,Kamron,and Brook'Lyn

Chonna Kellogg

April 30, 2007

Hey dad it's been almost 7 months since you went home. You don't understand how much i miss you and wish you could have been here for the birth of my daughter. She looks just BJ and Kamron, her name is Brook'Lyn Bobbiee. I wanted to give her something to remember you by even though she will never meet you. She has fat cheeks,big legs and pretty black hair. Dad I miss you so much and I know the boys do too. Ja'Dyn is starting to understand that you are not here anymore. Monte' is taking his anger out at school all the time, and Brandon just knows, and of course Kamron is too young to know. We miss and love you alot, R.I.P. Love Your daughter Chonna.

KaLeena Kellogg

October 25, 2006

Dad-
There are so many things I want to say, but don't know how to say it. I can start off by saying, I love you. Its something we really never got to tell each other because we were too busy bumping heads. But I know you never stopped loving me even though I got on your nerves. That morning when God called you home, I honestly thought it was a dream that I would wake up from. Its like one minute I heard you talking, the next minute Mom was calling your name, and you never answered. It just hurts that I never got a chance to really tell you I love you, so now its my chance. I love you Dad, and I am missing you.
Daddy's Girl,
KaLeena

Bobby- My Darling Husband,
On Friday morning, September 22, you left us physically but you did not leave our hearts. My world was shattered, but all the memories will help me go on. I think of the 33 years that we shared together and I think of all the times you made me laugh. I think of all the ups and downs we've had, but the love that we had for each other made us conquer anything we wanted to. Not only did I marry you but we were best friends. We would think alike, say the same words at the same time, and sometimes we would even walk alike. You are not suffering anymore and I'm glad for that, but not to be able to "make that cup of coffee" or have that "Saturday morning breakfast" is hard. I am missing all that and you very much. My eyes fill with tears often, but I know that God sent you home for a reason. I'll miss being called "Saundo-llamas" and "Little Nate" but most of all, I'll Miss You!
My love for you will never end,
Love,
Saundra

My dearest dad, the way I miss you words can not explain. I am having a very difficult time accepting the fact that you are gone. Maybe it's because I did not get to say goodbye,but i know that you are in a better place now. I know you will watch over us and everything will be alright. I am deeply greatful for the way you raised me and the bond that you had with my children, for those are the memories that I will cherish forever. I miss you and love so very much and you will always hold a very very special place in our hearts. Love your daughter Chonna

October 5, 2006

Bobby, I have talked to you often in my mind as I go through all the wonderful memories I have, ones we shared growing up together. You let me ride your bike, we built that tree house together and I got to drive your 1st car. You were a good brother and loved your family even more. You were never without a joke or in some way lifting you up and encouraging. You always called me when I needed it the most to ask me how I was doing, just like Dad did. I thank God I was able to spend that last day with you and talk with you. I am missing you, it seem like it came so fast. I know you are in a better place. I miss your presence and sense of humor. You will always be in my heart. Rest In Peace. Your Sis, Carol

There is no time when we're more in need of God's faithful love then when our hearts and those of our loved ones are burden with grief. Experience the one who comforteth the sorrowful.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I`ve known bobby since we we`re in the third grade at Howard kennedy grade school. I`ve been gone but returned last year and ran into Bobby down at his job at conestoga. We talked more than a few minutes about how long it`s been and how each one of us was doing, that was earlier this year. I`m just now checking my email, and found out about Bobby. I am very sorry for all those concerned, and I am happy for Bobby that all his problems are finally over. I Wish You Well.

Look to the Lord for comfort and strength, for He is with all of you.
