I went to junior and senior high school with Bobby. My husband (who went to high school with him) saw the notice in the paper. We were very saddened to read of his death. He was a great friend and person. We will continue to keep you and your family in our prayers.

I have great sympathy for your loss Miss Carol, Tiffany, Sasha, and others. It is so shocking how things like this happen, but for a reason we don't understand, God does it. I sincerely hope God and Bob are both with y'all in your hearts to help soothe the pain this has caused. I love y'all and am here for anything I might be able to do. Love Always, Amber

My thoughts & Prayers to my dear friend Carol. I am very sorry for your loss of your husband & I know he was your very best friend. He will be with you forever in memories. Thank God for the time you had with him. He brought you so much happiness from the time you met him. Nothing can take that away from you. You be strong and hold your head high. Most people don't get what you had & still have with Bob. I love him for being a great husband to you and a good step father to Tiffany & Shosha. I love him for bringing that twinkle to your eyes when you were with him. I know its so very hard but you will make it. Your friend, Annette

Carol and family,

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Bob was a good and decent man and will be missed by many more people than you will ever realize. I suggest you get a copy of a book by George Anderson called "Lessons From The Light" . It tells of how the Soul lives on and that eternal life really is there for us as and starts as soon as we cross over. I read it after my son Matthew died two years ago and it brought alot of comfort and understanding to me and my family. We met George Anderson during the summer and he really is for real. We know Matthew's soul and personality are still intact. My prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
