Bobby was one of my childhood friends. We grew up in Conway and I was friends with his brother Nicky as well. I have many happy memories of Bobby. He was always a good-natured guy, he was kind and caring. He was colossal fun. We played cowboys, and baseball, and all kinds of street games. We went camping and were in scouts together. Bobby played in a section championship basketball team in Freedom Junior High. He was always tall, so he played center. I was a senior and was a manager for that team. We had a great time. I wrote to him a couple of times when he was in the service and saw him once when he came back home. He thought I ought to join the Marines because "a lot of guys in there need repenting". I'll never forget him. I'm glad he was my friend. I'm better for it. Bob Butcher, Port Clinton, OH.
