Uncle Bobby, just thinking about you today, like we often do. So many times I want to mention you with my dad, but I know how it still hurts him all these years, being the little brother, I get that. I miss you and look forward to the day God hands out REAL justice to the ones responsible. This world is falling apart and one day, God will make it all new again. I pray you and saying hi to my mom today. Looking forward to the coming Day God makes Al things right! You are never forgotten and always loved.

Love,
Derek
