Bobby--I Love you so much ! You have left me THE GREATEST GIFT--I know you have God "our Father's " ear...Keep working on "our Project"! You will Not be forgotten..I will see you again.Thank You for Your Unending LOVE..Your Brother--Gene

Robert effervesced with a can-do attitude, friendliness, wit, and honesty.  

I was sorry to hear about his departure, which seems much too soon. My most sincere condolences to his relatives and loved ones.  

May God's peace be with you all.

Bobby...  I met you in 2000.  We had tons of fun times together!  You picked Nikki (my chocolate lab) and I up when I lived in Montrose to go get dirty in the mud at the dog park.  You did'nt care about your Lexus getting dirty.  You brought Nikki & I to play fetch.  All 3 of us were muddy in the end.  My dog was muddy (so were we) and you didn't care.  I will miss you.

Bobby, As I sat in the pew during the funeral so many memories came to mind.  One of them stood out:  the time we all dared you to sleep in the old Ross mansion in League City.  We had surveyed it the week before; you had bragged how you could stay there all night.  We took bets, and the night came.  We all escorted you to the mansion.  All you had was a flash light and a sleeping bag.  We all left and went somewhere locally; by eleven o'clock you joined us....guess you were a little bit scared of the dark after all....;)

Bobby, I'll always remember you calling or answering the phone saying, "What are ya doin?" You always had my back and will be remembered for being a great friend to me and Max, my puppy. When you called just the other day you asked to speak to Mr.Max. I guess cooking Thanksgiving dinner together this year will be cancelled but I'll toast to you,Bobby Douglas Mcbrayer,happy trails until we meet again. Your friend

John B Knight & Max, arf arf.

Most sincere condolences are extended to Bobby's family on behalf of the MacBrair Family Association. It is clear that he was a well respected man loved by many. May he rest in peace!

Robert and my nephew Duane would crack up at the jokes they shared.  Robert has a special place in the Houston Community's heart.  Oh, and you still owe me 20 bucks Bobby!  But, I'll extend your credit

It was a great time to work with Robert at SFWMD for different Projects. Nobody can forget his smiles. Everybody truly miss you. My condolences to his family and friends.

Rest In Peac (RIP)

Robert's energy, caring and enthusiasm will continue to shine in those of us who had the fortune to meet him. I am grateful that he took time out of his busy schedule when he traveled to Alaska to visit with our small contracting firm and made us feel that we were part of his team. My condolences to his family and to his family of friends.

Bobby, enjoyed our visits...Godspeed!  Dave

Quick witted, brilliant and fun to talk baseball with.  He will be missed.  Condolences to all who care for him.

Robert was the GIS and spatial man here at Repsol he always had a smile on his face, if he start talking he'll have you laugh until you cried. He meet no stranger. He will be missed around these hall here at Repsol. May God give you all peace in your time of sorrow. We will keep you all in our Prayer!

Robert always had a lot of enthusiasm and positive energy. He will be missed.

Charles Fried, Houston

He was a good friend, He will be missed. He always spoke his mind, very refreshing. Rest in peace Robert.

Robert was a great friend, he always rounded up the Bus in the morning to go get breakfast, he was the first to ask if you were ready, and last on to make the trip. He was the kind of friend that would go to a Florida State –VS- Alabama football game and have our Alabama hats and shirts on in a Florida Bar, where there were 300 Florida fans and only 5 Alabama fans, and he would still walk out of the bar with 5 new friends, even though they were voting for Florida. We will miss you brother.

Robert was always quick to smile, and was generous with sharing his time and talents with co-workers.  To his family, I offer my deepest sympathy, and hope it brings some comfort to you to know that Robert touched many people during a life that ended much too soon.  May he rest in peace.

Robert brought smiles and laughter into every workday, starting with the morning coffee run and only dwindling well after he took off for other adventures and quietude returned to the offices.  I will miss the warmth and caring that he brought into our lives.  My sincerest condolences to his family and to all who loved him.

My only memories of Bobby are from high school and even then I was more friends with his brothers than him. But he was always around. Even back then he was a kind honest person. I am sorry that I did not get to know him later in life. My most sincere condolence's to the family. I know he will be deeply missed.

Robert truly was a great friend and fun to talk (and listen) to.  Also had a smile on his face. He will be missed!

Robert helped me many times in his short stay here at SFWMD in South Florida. He was so friendly and had a great heart. One day he told me about a trip he took to Dubrovnik, Crotia. I said, "Where in  the world is that?" and he kindly sent me a photo of one the most beautiful places on earth! I used that photo as my desktop for well over a year and got more compliments than I can remember!! I'm sure he's in a place even more beautiful than Dubrovnik. My sympathies to the family.

Working with Roabert at the South Florida Water Management District was a pleasure.  He was extremely helpful with  GIS.  My prayers go out to his family.

Working with Robert at the SFWMD was a pleasure.  He was extremely helpful with all the GIS needs. Truely shocked for his passing.  My prayers go out to his family.

Bobby was a great uncle and a great man. He loved to talk (it must have been from all the coffee he drank!) and he loved to make people smile. I know he is up in heaven now talking God's ear off and making all the angels laugh. 

Uncle Bobby was the kind of man who put others first and who was always kind hearted. I'll never forget the time he flew up to Massachusetts to surprise my mom, his sister, for her birthday. He was only requested to send a birthday video, but he did something even greater. It meant so much to all of my family, including myself. The time I spent with him then and this past August will always bring back cherished and fond memories.

I love you Uncle Bobby.

R.I.P. Robert McBrayer. You will be missed.

Time passes by and we haven't crossed paths in a long time, but true friends are never forgotten.  Such a passionate and good hearted friend. It seems that we always had some entertaining surveying stories to talk about and thanks for them.
You will truly be missed.  Rest in Peace Bobby.

All of us at Eagle Mapping only knew Robert though phone converstaions regarding the Colville Delta project. We could tell that Robert was a very pleasant,positive person and very focused on the task at hand. Robert always took the time to speak to us on a personal level and made us feel that we were part of the Repsol team. Robert is going to be missed by us and we hope the person that takes his place has similar characteristics. Our thoughts and pryers go out to Robert's family and friends and those who knew him well.

Robert was one of the most caring individuals that I had ever met. I was fortunate to have worked with Robert for severals years and as a result had the opportunity to get to know him as a friend. Robert had a passion for military history, politics and  SEC football and I enjoyed the many discussions we had over those and other subjects. My life is richer for having known Robert. 

Having been out of contact with Robert over the past few months I am thankful that he called me recently and we were able to spend time catching up with each other.  I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to play another round of pool.  That will have to wait till we see each other again.

Rest in Peace

Robert, we are going to miss your energetic point of view and enthusiasm.

I had the pleasure of working with Robert several years ago at Geonex and also currently on remote sensing activities in Alaska. We shared many laughs together.  He will be missed.

I came to know Bobby when the McBrayer/Rose moved to 3rd Street in the early 1970's. We all played together; dodgeball, baseball, touch football,  and whatever mischief we could get ourselves into(July 4th fireworks, Halloween pranks), and out of, together. And we all endured school, our parents, siblings, neighbors and the occasional cop, together. If you listened closely you would hear him make some funny,  sarcastic comment under his breath. All my memories of Bobby are good ones. He was kind and thoughtful, tenderhearted. He stopped to see my mother on 3rd Street several years ago and inquired about her and our family. That was Bobby on earth. I imagine he is not that much different in heaven, because he doesn't need to change from the beautiful person he was with us to the beautiful soul he is now.

I hired him to support GIS at the District, and he accepted the position to learn more about the server side of things.  However, I think I learned more about being a human being from him than he learned about systems administration from me.  A friend in need was always a top priority for him. He will be sorely missed...

I knew Robert in South Florida and then here in Houston. He always a great help with all things GIS. He will be missed. Thank you and Rest In Peace, Robert!

 Never had honor of meetin Bobby butvery ciose to his Mother an his brother Gene , May he rest in peace,

As a long term friend it is with sadness and joy remembering a great friend.  We first met when I was with IBM and he with League City.  We joined forces when IBM downsized and worked together at League City.  Many years later we were still friends, and his passing is a tragedy.  May we meet again in Paradise.  Ray Sanders

So sorry to hear the news. Robert helped me with a smile many times when i over stress our GIS system.

I only knew Bobby in high school.  He always seemed to be fun guy.  My condolences go out to his family.  Rest in peace Bobby.



Robert will be missed tremendously! He was a great person, and could always make one laugh. I am lucky to have had the opportunity to know and work with such a wonderful individual. 

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

You will never be forgotten. I will always remember how you helped me after my accident, I am forever grateful. Love and Peace.

I have known Bobby for a little more than 2 years, but the incredible feeling of loss for knowing someone only that short period of time  is hard for me to put into words.  Bobby was my brother-in-law, but he was much more.  He was a good friend, a fierce political opponent (I think I will miss those spirited debates the most), and a man with a heart as big as his voice.  My wife lost a brother, my kids lost and uncle and I lost a friend, but we will all see him again someday, and until that day we will live with the incredibly fond memories he left us with.

From the moment he was born to his last days on this world he was a blesssing and blessed all those in his presence just by knowing him and those special few that were in his life and shared in his life no matter how small were lucky to have known him.  He was vocal and honest and believed what he believed - if only we could all learn from that be that way.  He was a very loving caring brother and uncle to his nieces and he will be missed every day but NEVER forgotten.  I love you and miss you my sweet brother.

I am sorry to hear of Bobby"s passing, I know he is in Gods hands know at Peace & Home, may you rest in Heaven, Always Rembered... Never Forgotten... Amen

I worked with Robert this past year and will surely missed our phone conversations. He was a fountain of knowledge and very dedicated. 
My condolences to his family in this time of sorrow.

With deepest sympathy,
Mireya Armesto

Great co-worker. Very loud man and he new it! Always made me laugh and always shared great conversations with him. Can't wait to cross paths with him again.

I have no words. Although I didn't know Robert for that long, during the time we worked together at SFWMD, he was a delight to work with. He always found a way to make one smile. To His Family: I'm terribly sorry for your loss. Knowing Robert, I think he would want you to smile and be as full of life as he was. My prayers go out to you.

Robert will be greatly missed here at Repsol.  He was a wonderful colleague and a tremendous person.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

Robert was a hard worker and a good guy. He could make you laugh. We miss him already. 

My prayers goes to his family to ask the Lord to bring them comfort and grace that only God can give.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14:27.

Aww I only knew Bobby for 4 short months, and it was a joy to work in the cubicle beside him. He was always full of life and so kind and a very diligent worker. He was a gentle soul and always willing to help. He had a big heart. You will be missed Bobby!

Bobby has drifted in and out of my life since 1997.  He was never the type of person to stay in one place too long, but when he did stay, he made friends easily and shared himself with those around him.

I had the pleasure of having him as a Mentor when I began in the GIS Profession.  His mentorship grew into a Friendship that has lasted a decade and a half.

During that time, I had been blessed by his insight and gifted with the knowledge he shared freely.  Each dose given with a touch of humor and honesty.

It was only last year when I encountered Bobby again, at the beginning of one of his many returns to Houston.

We had a chance to chat, relive some memories and enjoy a few minutes of each others company.  In hindsight, I am sorry that I did not have the opportunity to sit down with him any longer than the few minutes we both managed to steal from our schedules that day.

Bobby was a bright light in our GIS Community and his passing will diminish our Profession.
I will surely miss you. God Speed Bobby.

Praying for the peace that goes beyond understanding for friends and family. Only the fondest of memories remain of Bobby. 

"From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I."

You beat us to the Rock!

Robert was a great man!  I learned a lot from him this last year and respected him greatly!  A blessing from God!

Bobby was one of the first people to become my friend when I transferred to Clear Creek.  He was incredibly sweet and went out of his way to be nice to the "new kid."  Bobby was one-of-a-kind, and the world has lost an incredible man.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

As a former emploee, room mate and personal friend of mine. my condolences to his family and friends.  Bobby always gave 110% at work and would give you the shirt off his back if he felt you needed it

Bob was a friend from the first time I met him in 1994.   Bob and I would keep in touch from that time up to just a few weeks ago.  Bob was known to move from place to place.   When talking with Bob, the question was, where are you now?  We kept in touch as he moved from to Huntsville Alabama, back to Houston, to Raliegh NC,  to Palm Beach and back to Houston, plus other spots in between....  It was the same question among our group of close knit GISer's that knew him, where is Bob?  It was that we cared about Bob, as he was a good friend.  We know he is in a good place now, and will miss him.   Some day we will cross paths again.....

Bobby was always a lot of fun and made coming to work an adventure.  He will be missed.

Sending my condolences to his family and friends at this difficult time. I know he will be missed and never forgotten by all that knew him. 


Cheryl Ludwig

Bobby was an old friend and we recently got back in touch with each other.  He was always so kind and of course fun to be around.  You will be truly missed Bobby.

To the family-it's been a very long time since I have seen any of you but over the years have thought of y'all often. So very sorry for your loss. Bobby was such a sweet kid and I imagine a wonderful adult. Will be praying for all of you.

Our family and friends chain is broken,
and life is not the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
our chain will link again..
You are sadly missed Bobby, but never forgotten.

Robert is one of my best friends and I surely miss him.

Bobby was my mentor when I first got out of College and started my GIS career.  I learned so much from him over the years.  My prayers go out to Bobby's family and his other close friends.

Bobby will be sorely missed by all of us in the GIS community.  He was always helpful, kind, and a guy who cared a lot about how GIS could impact the community in a positive way.  God bless you Bob and may you rest in peace!

"Bobby was my Brother-He was there Always..starting at his earliest age-He believed in what was right-and he stood for it. He was good-hearted, generous, and gentle but strong when he needed to be..He served in the U.S. Airforce with (SAC) Strategic Air Command, attended Univ. of Houston, and was successful in business--But most of all he succeeded at being a Great Human Being..As John said..When he made you his friend-He meant it...YOU were His Friend..and He was there..Rest in Peace Bobby. 
                                  
                                                                     Gene McBrayer

Bobby,

Some times it is hard to understand the passing, but Jesus has made a place for you in his kingdom.

Bobby was a good-hearted man - the kind whose friendships were untarnished by separation in time or space.  It was my good fortune to have have known him as a friend.
