My heart is broken with the passing of one of the greatest men I've ever been blessed to know and call my friend. Bob was the ultimate definition of selfless, strong, courageous, intelligent, resilient, and devoted. The way he talked about, and loved his wife, children, grandchildren, and family are stories and words I will never forget! To know Bob was to know true love, God's love. I'll never forgot our many conversations, laughs, tears, meals, watching shows together, and how he encouraged me and straightened my backbone during some of my hardest times in my life, I am forever changed and blessed by knowing him and my heart is so very broken not having him here any longer. I will honor him with the words he left me with and the love he showed to me, I will show up, care, provide, love, and go on even when I think I can't. Until we meet in Heaven again some sweet day, my Dear friend,I will miss you and go on day to day with the blessing that you were to me! I love you Always Bobby, Love Truly, your friend Jessie
