I could never ask for a better for me or grandpa for my children. He was always there for us and he’ll be abother special angel in heaven to watch over us. I’m glad he is not suffering any longer and that he’s in a better place. Now I hope we can pray for Mary Harvey who is a wonderful stepmother that she finds and keeps the courage to stay strong. Nicole and Mathias love there Nana Mary very much as do I.
Dear Mary, We are so sorry to hear of Bobby’s death. Please know that you are in our prayers. If there is anything we can do, please let us know. You and Bobby had 45 wonderful years together. God bless.
Although you do not know me personally, I grew up wih Bobby in Dorchester. He was a wonderful person, kind and considerate and one I still remember from my teenage days. I was fortunate to see Bobby a few years ago at a Dorchester gathering and we had a nice chat. Another friend told me of his passing and I would have definitely come to his sevices, but at present, I am dealing with pneumonia. My sincerest sympathy to you and your family.
