Bobby enjoyed riding horses, he loved everything western. He was a hard-working man with a heart of gold, but above everything he loved his family the most. He would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. Bobby loved fishing and talking on the CB radio. But above all he always loved playing catch and kick ball with his children.
