Roberto Juan Florez

Bobaloo was born November 06, 1968, the son of Roverto and Juanita “Jane” Florez. He was a

1986 Oakridge graduate. He tried college but couldn’t turn the computer on. That was the end of

his educational journey.

Bobaloo was blessed with three children and loved his family more than anything. He enjoyed

camping at Round Lake, going up North to the family property “Uncle Notch’s Property”, enjoyed

rides by the lake, football – Oakridge football, golfing, horseshoes, softball, and volleyball. His

favorite line was “Do you want to watch my tapes?” Sports were his passion. Bobaloo was a

lifetime fan of The Detroit Lions and Michigan Football, as he would say “GO BLUE OR F YOU!”

Bobaloo worked at Gerber, Free Spirt Roofing, and Gonyon’s Well Drilling over the years. He

found joy in being around people and making them laugh. Bobaloo was full of personality and

one of a kind. If you met him, you never forgot him.
