Bobby was an electrical engineer and a veteran of the Army National Guard. Bobby was a wonderful family man. His greatest joy was being around his loved ones. He had a kind and generous heart and he never met a stranger. His welcoming, loving, and even humorous demeanor touched the hearts of everyone he met. He was a mentor and the "Rock" for all who knew him. He led by example and everyone wanted to follow him and impress him with their accomplishments, that he had often inspired. He was the best husband, father, son, brother, and grandfather. His shoes will be hard to fill. To know him is to love him. He was an amazing man and will be greatly missed.
