Bobbie was one of the greatest men I have ever had the privilege to know.\u00a0 He was one of the first to make you welcome at his church and always had a story or joke to tell.\u00a0 He will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him.\u00a0 Our prayers to his wife Geneva and the rest of his family.

My heartfelt Condolences to Geneva and the entire family. No women could have wished for a more loving, gentle hearted Father-in-Law than I had in Bob. When my father passed 16 yrs ago he gave me the comfort of the absence of my own Father. He NEVER had a bad word of anyone. RIP… Now your in presence with your brothers Edwin & Earlwood I am sure something that left you hollow for the last few years!
\nTo the family… I Love you ALL.
\nMy thoughts and prayers with you during this adjustment as the Family sheep has left his flock and gone before the Lord.
\nMy Deepest sympathy, Angie Shelton<\/p>\n

I grew up in the Shelton household always going to Bobbi and Geneva\u2019s house for school functions and Halloween parties and the kids were are at our house and my mom babysit Bobbi\u2019s grandkids. I love that family like they were my own family and I will surely miss Bobbi smile and jokes. So very sorry to hear of Bobby\u2019s passing. I will always remember the times he came to visit with Bob. They were always trying to out do each other with a joke! They are together again.\u00a0 Heaven look out!!\u00a0 A big hug to Geneva, I\u2019ve really missed our hugs on Sunday mornings. Prayers to the family, remember all the good times. Love to all Sherri Belland<\/p>\n So sorry for your loss, prayers and thoughts are with you. Larry and I have been neighbors to Bob and Geneva since !973…the year we moved into our home.\u00a0 We always told each other we couldn’t have better neighbors!\u00a0 We will miss Bob’s concern for his yard, our yard, and for our trees which were shedding something each season.\u00a0 We joked, for years, about how our trees were so good about sharing.\u00a0 There’s lots of things we will miss about Bob, but most of all he was a good friend and neighbor.\u00a0 We wish the family all the best with the decisions coming.
