To Bobby's family and everyone at C-PALSY:

I am shocked and saddened to read about Bobby's passing.  My deepest 
condolences to all.  Bobby was such a nice person.  Many times this winter, I spoke 
with him online by instant messenger, always at midnight.  I'll cherish those 
funny conversations forever.

One time, he asked if I was reading my email.  I replied that I was deleting 
most of it.  He replied, Oh speed reading.  Once, he told me about his mother, 
how he and his brother were trying to get her settled in a nursing home after 
surgery, and how she would not cooperate with the staff and stay in bed.  I 
told him if I was her age, I wouldn't cooperate either.  He thanked me for 
letting him rant.  Once, we talked about my son wanting a dog for Christmas, and 
the type of dog that would be good for him.  He told me all about his boyhood 
dog.  He always asked about my son, and offered wonderful advice.  Priceless 
conversations.  

We will all miss him.

My best to all,
Wanda
Mom to Ryan
