Name: Peacock, Newnam & White Funeral and Cremation Service
Address: Southport, NC

My condolences to the family as I just learned this morning of his passing, shocked to hear as he was a close friend to my late husband and myself Roberta Dosher.  I really only new of him as (Blue Boat Bob) as my husband would call and he stopped to visit bringing many wonderful goodies when he came by, strawberries, peaches apples whatever he enjoyed sharing and with a smile of happiness to do it. He was a super man of kindness loving his fishing buddies and the stories of many from the tackle shop at the marina.  He will be missed by many and so sorry to learn of this today. Thoughts be with you and your family at your loss and I will keep you in my prayers
Roberta Dosher and family, Southport, NC

Even through I have not been around Bobby in a few years, growing up with the three boys, even through I was their Aunt, I felt like Bobby was a second father to me when my mom, Lois Newman, and I would go and spent the summertime with my sister Jerri when I was out of school. Bobby, please RIP, and say hello to my sister, Jerri, my nephew Rick, your parents and silbings, and to my mother, and father. Love you, Lynn Newman Nettles

Had'nt seen him in a long time but I have many Great Memories!! Remember he had me a go-cart when i was about 5yrs old... he was a Awesome Paw paw R.I.P

I am going to miss uncle Bobby very much, especially at the Family reunions every year.He had some great stories to tell, every time I saw him each year,he reminded me of his brother (My Dad) God bless you uncle bobby. I love you.

Bob was a great Marine and I had the pleasure to serve with him.  We enjoyed many great talks and often spoke of our love of fishing.   Hoping that God's hands will bring peace to his family in this time of sorrow.

We are so sorry to hear of the loss of Robert Kennedy. The thoughts of many fellow Marines are with you at this time of sorrow.

Bob was a good friend to Rex and me,  we always enjoyed fishing with him,  I will miss talking with him on the phone, and his friendship.  My condolences to his family,

Bob was a best friend to my husband(who has passed) and I. He helped me make up a shadow box with my husbands metals for me to give to my son and would just call to talk.  I will always remember his laugh and smile.  God Bless you Bob.

So sorry to hear about Mr.Kennedy. I work in the lab at Dosher and would talk to him when he came in for blood work. We hit it off right away when he found out I am originally from Filbert SC. He was such a sweet man and I will miss seeing that smiling face. So sorry for your loss.

Bob will be missed by Mel & me. We always enjoyed his phone calls & visiting him when in NC. He was a dear friend to us & Mel & he were friends for many years and loved each other. Prayers are being sent to the family from us.

I have known Bob for 10 years. I remember that  he always had a smile on his face and a joke to tell. I will miss him terribly. Condolences to his family.

Bob's smile and ready wit will be missed by all who knew him.  We were blessed to have been around him for several years in the Southport area.
