Bobby was a great person, and I feel lucky to have known him during our school years at Berkeley. Mikky and Bobby were very much soul mates. I know she has many loving memories of their life together.

I remember Bobby as being one of the nicest people in high school as well as one of those great football players (Stags). My prayers go out to Mikky and the family to be able to dwell on all the great memories you must have shared over the years.
