Mary and family, I was so surprise to see the paper and Bobby passing to a better place. I know how hard this will be on all of you. You have so many friends that will be there to help you in this time. It is hard to lose the ones you love but you don't really lose them because of all the memories you've made and shared. Remember them and he'll always be close at heart. I know, Ray is. Take care
