I didn't know Bobby as well as most of the people who signed this, but I am deeply saddened to learn of his passing. I know he was (is, in heaven) a godly man and a good father, as everyone attests. He also came across as persevering and optimistic, making the best of difficult circumstances. I pray Joey and Bobby Jr are able to do the same.

Bobby I didn't know you that well but my step-son helped you and the kids when you had the fire ( he went back in for the dog) you just moved into the beautiful home again. You were a great neighbor. May you RIP. My heart goes out to the children cause they were your pride and joy. May all the great memories of you get your family through this difficult time of their lives. You were too young to earn your wings.

Too soon, too young, this loving father has left his legacy with his sweet, kindhearted children. In their short time with their dad, he taught them many important things about living a good life. Each new day, they will make him proud. ❤ Sincere condolences.

My heart is heavy since hearing of Bobby's passing. I had the privilege of working with him for several years at the VA in a helping capacity. He was a proud Veteran, but his biggest pride and joy by leaps and bounds were his children. He loved his kids more than anything and I saw that first hand many times over. Bobby was a unique, entertaining, motivated, hardworking single father trying to do the best he could. He will be missed greatly by many and my heart goes out to his children.
