I am so sorry for your loss.Bobby was a part of my life for 30 years and I truly feel like part of my soul is missing. We will all treasure every memory we have of him and he will be dearly missed. While it's true heaven gained an angel today, those who loved him did also: we will always have a guardian angel watching over us. God be with you and sustain you in your time of need.
