Bobby

On April 13, 2009, my mother’s fiance of 7 years was taken off life support. Because they all knew how he was such a giving man they decided he would want to donate his organs if he could.

We know his kidney was donated to a mother of two, and his he had both his eyes donated. Bobby was a fantastic man and I loved him very much and I know he is smiling in heaven knowing he helped these families! We miss him!
