I first remember Bobby when the Vining boys played football and I was a cheerleader at North Dade Optimist Club. Such great times growing up and always a great guy. RIP

Bobby may you R.I.P.! I remember the ski days at the lake and hanging out with everyone such fun times. My condolences to the family.

I had the privilege to know and work with Bobby with the rest of the Port Everglades Firefighter family. Bobby was always there when you needed him giving his all. Pat and I recalled at dinner last night a fishing trip we shared where he taught us his technique to catch dolphin. Our wishes go out to his family during this difficult time. My he find peace and rest with the lord.

Bobby was one of a kind! A hard worker and loving father! He was a true outdoorsman with a passion for fishing and diving. Our condolences to the family and may he rest in peace.

Bob was the best. His smile and silly jokes. His wonderful deep fried turkeys. Bob never had a bad word about anyone. It was an honor and pleasure to know him and I thank Bob everyday for his beautiful daughter that is now part of my family. Rest in Peace Bob..you may not be here any longer but you will never be forgotten.

Bobby, may you RIP. It was my good fortune to spend my teenage years with you. We had such fun on our ski days, mini lobster season with your mom and dad and all those trips to Disney, and those football games, the highlight of the week. You will be missed by all of us that were a part of your life. I will love you forever.

My Brother Richard and I send our Condolences to Bobby's family. May you find peace in your memories and hold them dear to your heart.

So blessed to share a lifetime of memories. To a great man and the best of friends, you will be missed Bobby. May you rest in our Lord's peace. Love you Bobbo!

A heart of gold. You will surely be missed. Rest in peace our friend. You are with the ones you love. We loved you.

Having met the Vinings in the early 70's, many fond memories spent at Billy and Bobby's house on the lake listening to the jukebox, playing little league and high school football together and helping out once in a while roofing with Bobby, Billy and Mr. Vining. The four of us would tear off a roof by noontime and have it all done by afternoon. I was the 'greenhorn' of course and tried to do what I could just to keep up lol. But to watch the Vinings work ethic on that hot roof always made me proud that they would ask me to help out. I can still remember one time in particular we were taking a break and it's like 98 in the shade, Bobby looks at me and says "momma use to say if your gonna be dumb you better be tough!!" You guys gave me some great memories growing up and I thank you for that. God bless Bobby and God bless you all. Eddie.

I worked with Bobby for his entire career in the Fire Department and found him to be a man of integrity, of responsible action, and of practical reason. He always reminded us not to be overly concerned with trivia -- "It don't matter!" -- reminding us to only make the important things of life the important things.The last time I saw Bobby, he related to me how he had come to see the importance of having a connection to God. That was quite a few years ago, but I cannot help but to hear his easy-going reminder not to be so concerned with things that don't matter and to only be focused upon those that do.

Rest in Peace Bobby! I remember the first time I saw you barefoot ski! I had never seen it done before, you were awesome!

Fishin,surfin, skiing, playing,ball,loved him like a brother averygood man.My tears flow..R.I.P. Bobby

Going to vining house mom allways had lunch for us while bobby pulled on his boat skiing

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Vining family as you celebrate Bob's life. He is in the loving hands of our Lord and back on the water with Bubba!! God Bless!Thomas, Lori, Carley, Cayla, and Carson FulcherWinterset, Iowa

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Lacey and Julie. We have a lot of fond memories working with him at Port Eve glades. He will be missed. RIPJoe and Mary Benavides
