I have many very fond memories of our times as neighbors as well as trips taken together as friends. You all held a special place in my heart and will continue. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers for strength to get continue on each and every day by God’s amazing Grace & love. Love, Angela
Vivian, It was with great sadness I learned of Bobby’s passing. He will be greatly missed and we will certainly miss him at the Bowling Center. My son once told me that he hoped he could bowl as good as Mr. Bobby when he got to be his age so you see he was looked up to by many. Let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you. Jeff, Shelley and Bradley Jackson

Vivian & Bill, our love and prayers go with you. May God hold you in his arms to comfort your broken hearts. Bobby will be so missed by all whose lives he has touched.

Vivian and family, I was so sorry to hear about my friend Bobby’s passing. I greatly regret that I waited too long to get over to visit with the two of you while he was still with us. Bobby had always been such a fighter through his previous health problems that I had no doubts that he would recover this time and we would enjoy good times again at bowling. Life can be so fleeting, and we cannot always count on tomorrow. He was such a great friend to me since he gave me the chance to bowl with him and Ambler on the Dixon’s men’s team on Thursday nights many years ago. He always had a smile for everyone and a funny joke or story to tell and will be GREATLY missed at bowling by everyone, and especially me.
Bobby’s Family My wife PJ and myself really enjoyed those times we bowled with Bobby. He made us laugh and we shared many stories. We will miss him. May God be with you in your time of sorrow. Respectfully Rich and PJ Quinn
Love was the reason for the ransom sacrifice, showing the great love that Jehovah & Jesus had for all of mankind. (John 316) What a wonderful gift we have been giving, to have the hope of seeing our loved ones once again. Death is the age-old enemy, we all meet as our journey end. It is never pleasant, when we loss someone we love. The pain at times, is so heart breaking, that our tears, keep on flowing. (Ps. 3418) Even the perfect man, JESUS CHRIST, Gave way to tears. So greatly grieved was he over the death of his friend, Lazarous. (John 1135) Without fear the way ahead
