I can't believe it has been 4 years. I think about Bobby a lot because of my three sons, Joey, Michael and Bobby. I remember when they all hung out together when you lived on Heath Street. He was the same age as my Bobby, he was just too young to leave. I hope this finds you and Michelle doing okay. Thinking and praying for you.
Miss you buddy

If you are reading this; thinking of you today and praying for a peace in your hearts that surpasses all understanding. Love never fails. And the greatest of these is.......
God Bless
We worked together at Sunrise ever so briefly. You made an enourmous impact in my life. I often think of "life beyond the clothesline" such a devastating circumstance should NEVER happen, and least of all to those who we love. I hope this day finds you wiith peace. God Bless you

You know why time seems so strange to us? I think cuz we weren't designed for time. We were designed for eternity!!! PTL : )

Skiing for the first time
omg Tommy do you remember this, so we all decided to go skiing, god we were probably 19-20 years old I cant remember. Karen, Amy, Me, Bobby, Tommy, Theresa forgive me if I leave anyone out. So Bobby and I had never got on ski's, he and I get to the top of this mountain, look at each other and say okay we can do this....little by little he and I made our way down the mountain so we thought, we didn't get that far. This little 5ish year old decides he is going to show us up and spray us with snow....lol needless to say it was so funny, we decided to take off our ski's walk down the mountain and call it a day...good times. miss you Bobby
