Becca,
I am so sorry that you have lost your sweet
Bobby. I lost my husband a few short months ago
so I am fully understanding what you are
feeling right now. Just know that Bobby was a
wonderful, sweet person and he loved you very
much! He always spoke highly of you. I know
it's been a few years since we've seen each
other but I think of you often and always loved
our time together. May God give you comfort and
peace and know that I am praying for you daily!
I love you dear friend!
