His niece and nephews Ioved spending time with their UncIe Bobby as they were growing up. They especialIy loved when he tossed them around in the pool and asked him to do it over and over, which he always obliged. He will be greatIy missed and will leave a giant Teddy-Bear sized hoIe in all our hearts and we will love him always. His family will gather for a private Celebration of Life.
