Uncle Bobby, to me, was bigger than life. He had an inner light that always seemed to brighten any room or event and cause people to smile more. Family events seemed bigger, louder and more fun when Bobby attended them. My prayers are for his soul’s quick ascention to Heaven, and for his family, who will miss him. God Speed.
