He always found friends wherever he went and immediately tried to make them his relatives. He had a passion to live life to the fullest and was always surrounded by his family and the very best of friends.

his daughters, Jamie (Justin) Gayler and grandsons, Aidan and Maddox of Siloam Springs, Brandy (Chad) Morgan and grandchildren, Audree, Case and Maysie and great granddaughter, Emilia Mae of Keo; brothers and sister, Larry (Leah) Williams of Greenbrier, Ann (Kenny) Thorton of Pine Bluff and David (Lynda) Johnson of Conway.

Bobby was a wonderful man I worked with for many years. He was sweet to me funny and I enjoyed every conversation we had. We joked together about both being redheads, or as we would say gingers. He looked out for me if he noticed I did not have sunscreen on and get onto me about not putting it on regularly. I really enjoyed just listening to him, and the other guys tell their stories. You will be missed Bobby.
