"Bobby will be missed by many. I've known him since I was a little child. I'll always remember when he worked with my Daddy at Botany. He would always be behind us when we went to pick my Daddy up. We would always wave at him. He was a very sweet man that was always smiling. God bless you all in this sad time in your lives."
