"Bobby's life was filled with many difficult moments and occasionally he lost his way yet he was a kind hearted man whose laugh and sense of humor were always present even to his last days. We love you and know that Mom is there to embrace you once again." Ken

My Little brother and my best friend, you are no longer in this world but you are in my mind and my heart, which is broken in grief. Life for me will never be the same without you. You will never be gone from my thoughts. Everywhere I look, I see remnants of your presence. I know you're happy to see and be with our mother again. As I write these words I long to hug you, see you laugh, hear your silly sense of humor. I cry your name out of loneliness. As I start a new chapter in my life, just know that I feel you smiling down upon us. I love you brother. Willy

Hey Fav Brother in law (sorry Ken). I miss you mucho. I don't have anyone to argue with or to prove who is right or wrong on many of our debates. I know that I taught you a lot (LOL) and I will have to admit that you taught me a lot as well. You will always be in my heart and I will NEVER forget you. "Patsy"

In memory of my beloved little brother, I would like to add that his loyalty to his siblings was superb especially when it had to do with standing up to any foe! He was brave and unafraid and could act on impulse. Something I could appreciate and admire. Bobby will be forever remembered by me in the since of his quick and witty comments to any and all surrounding circumstances. He knew how to make you laugh! And laugh we did. He was always there for our mother also, more than we all were! Bobby could be your best friend and was ready to help you with his talent and experience. Bobby will be missed indeed! Alan

In the process of trying to put into words what my big brother Bobby means to me, I gaze into the past, my mind is flooded with so many memories. My heart captured in the snare of emotions and loneliness. They overwhelm me as I try to be strong like he asked. Growing up with him through all my struggles, my feelings never cut down or short by him. He always told me he understood and it would be ok. Oh yes he had some choice words and comments for my past behaviors but he never stopped loving, forgiving and supporting me through it all. No matter how many mistakes or bad decisions I made for my life and my families lives he continued to love me. In addition, he told me that quite often though out our lives, as all my brothers have. Bobby was more than just a brother he was my friend, which brings this poem to mind…

A Friend

A friend is someone who cares. A friend is someone who shares. A friend is someone who knows you as you are, understands where you have been, and accepts the person you have become. With a warm heart and open arms, he still gently invites you to grow.

That is what Bobby was to me all right, my friend. He continued to encourage and watch me grow into the woman he always said he knew I could and would be. I miss you more than I can bare. As I watched Jesus receive you into his loving embrace, I knew you would find and feel all that you have lacked in your life. I will miss all the laughter and jokes, all the love and joy, all the heartache and pain we shared. Nevertheless, knowing you, you will fit right in up there in Heaven. Seeing old friends, family, and making new ones as you always did, brings me comfort and peace. Rest in Jesus now brother and put in a good word for me. Jeanne Marie
