This is so heartbreaking to hear . I worked with Bobby at the complex /Broyhill years ago . He was one of the good ones . He was a very good friend to me and I have memories of him that I cherish. I thought a lot of him. One thing that stood out about Bobby is that his daughter’s were his world . In our conversations he spoke about his girls often . He was very proud of you both . I’m so very sorry for your loss , my heart goes out to you all 🙏🏼

Friday like so many, I was saddened and shocked to hear Bobby is no longer with us. Bobby was such an "exceptional" father, friend and human being! Folk's were better people for crossing paths with this gentleman. He is going to be missed by all that knew him. There is no doubt we will see Bobby again! Sending love and prayers to his girls, family and friends.

—Trent Ramsey

Bobby was an awesome man who loved his girls so much! He was such a great friend to me back when I lost my dad! My prayers are with all the family, love you guys!! Sorry we won't be able to attend the funeral cuz we are still in Florida. Just know you all are in our thoughts and prayers.
