I miss my brother Bobby every day. He was the best brother ever!

Bobby was my oldest brother. He always had a great sense of humor just like my Dad and I. I only have vague memories of Bobby as he was 14 years older than I and we hardly saw each other over the years, except when I was a baby and I don't remember much from then.  Anyway, one time I was visiting Bobby, Pat, and the girls- Merri and Cherri when they lived in California. Pat had Bobby on a strict diet.  Pat needed Bobby to go to the store for something so I went with him.  Before we left, Bobby just had to have a "sweet treat" so he bought some Hostess Twinkies, ate the whole package, and threw the wrapper out the window! When my sister and I were very young, Bobby used to go to carnivals and he always brought my sis and I big stuffed animal's that he'd won at the carnival games. He was so fun, funny,  and sweet, just like our Dad. I miss him and love him so much.

I am so saddened to hear of Bobby's passing.  He was a wonderful and unique individual who provided me much entertainment while working at IMPAC with him.  I loved his Three Stooges impression, and of course, his sense of humor.  He also taught me how to escape from social events without anyone noticing - something that I still laugh about, even today.  Pat, and family, my deep condolences.

Grace and comfort to you, PAT (nee LONG), in the passing of our Capistrano Union High School friend and fellow classmate, BOBBY.   BOBBY was a good  friend but, alas, we went our separate ways and I never knew to where you moved.  (I went on to be a military and police officer).  BOBBY was a gentile soul and a good man.  Death finds us all in its own time and accord.  I wish BOBBY a good farewell journey.                   

"Atque in perpetuum, frater,  ave atque vale."   ('Hail & farewell,'
brother,  for eternity.....).

To Pat & Family, 

So sorry for your loss, Bobby was such a kind & loving person with a great sense of humor!! I worked with him for 10 years @ IMPAC. My thoughts and prayers are with you & your family

Bob was a dear friend, kind, gentle spirit, loving, and funny. We are very thankful that God let our paths cross with Bob in this life, it was a blessing to call him friend. We will miss him and forever hold his memories dear to our hearts. Our loss is Heaven's gain. We will continue praying for Pat and the family for comfort, peace, and understanding. In Christ's Love- Danny & Joyce Anderson

Bobby was my older brother.  He was the sweetest,  funniest, kind, most loving brother ever! Although we didn't get to see each other very often,  I loved him very very much and I am going to miss him so much. 

Many memories of being neighbor on Kirkland Circle in Huntington Beach. California.  The painting that Pat gave Lucille and I still hangs proudly in my dining room  here in Springfield, Missouri.
My condolences and prayers for the family.

Bob was a gentle, kind man with a delightful sense of humor. I will never forget his compassion toward me and my husband, Bob, when our son, Ed, died. He came with a covered dish and much love. He was a joy to know, and Heaven is richer in grace and mercy for his presence.
