He was one of a kind. You couldn't help but love Bobby. He tried not to let it show too much but it was always clear that he loved his family and friends deeply. He will be greatly missed.

Your grief may ebb and flow. It has been said that each of us has this well deep inside of us that can be filled to the brim with grief. Every time we cry, we empty out some of the well. But the well fills again. The level of sorrow in your well may lessen as time passes, but it will never run dry. There will always be birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and those days when the well seems to fill to its brim again. Allow yourself time to remember and mourn. It is part of your healing. Grief is a continuing journey.

Kathy & Jason,

I express my condolences to your family. I know there is nothing I can say to lessen your pain. Bob always welcomed me into your home like I was one of his own. I'll never forget his generosity and his memory will carry on forever.
