Pat, I am so sorry to hear that the love of your life has passed away. You and Bobbie have always been a big influence in my life. As Bobbie rests, we will all wait for our Savior to come down and take us home with him and we will see Bobbie again. Please know I have and always will keep you in my prayers. And I know that God will keep you in his soothing hands to help you thru the days ahead. Love, Kathy Black ( Tony Suggs sent me the notice)
