My heart is heavy, not only for myself but for our adult children, grandchildren and Amy and the whole Edwards’s family.
In later years we bonded in friendship with Bobby and Amy. We shared many wonderful times together with our adult children and grandchildren. These are all very precious!
We love you, Bobby!
We’ll miss you!

I met Bobby thru mutual friends who worked with him at Massey including my brother in-law Dwight Haven. We played softball on the Boutell realty team back in the 80’s. Lots of good times! He also lived on Carmel Ave. near my mother and she always enjoyed her talks with him. He was always a gentleman! I’m sure he’s missed. So sorry for your loss
