I am so sorry Sissy. I know you have many good memories of your brother. May the Lord be with you. God bless you and yours.
Bob was the best Center, I ever QB’d behind. We played HS ball together and I recall our final exam day (May, 1968) at MSU where we enjoyed a sip of Southern Comfort in celebration for a hard earned BS Degree. Peace be with you Bob.
BOBBY CAME FROM A GREAT FAMILY AND CONTINUED THAT WITH HIS FAMILY. HE WAS BRIGHT AND KIND. I’M GLAD OUR PATHS CROSSED IN LIFE. I THINK HE WAS A LITTLE LEAGUE POWERGLILDER AS I WAS.
BOBBY CAME FROM A GOOD FAMILY. HE ALWAYS EXCELED BUT REMAINED HUMBLE. I’M GLAD OUR PATHS CROSSED.
It was hard saying good by to a good friend & co-worker. Rest in peace.
Bob, I am happy for you to be with the Lord and to be free of pain. Will always remember you.
