Bobbysaurus, now you can get your own frisbees!  :-)  I would like to thank the family for allowing us to be part of Bobbys life and to be counted among his friends at the Hab Center.  Our heartfelt prayers for everyone that lost a great friend.

 My mind is filled with memories, my heart is truly broken. Fly, Bobby, and when you land in heaven, realize and enjoy your new, perfect body and mind. Don't lose the laughter, your energy....and remember those of us that were with you almost every day, for years, helping you to try and get through just one day at a time. Go Bobby...be free....       
 


Bobby was one of my favorite client (even though we "don't have favorites"). I worked with him for the past few years from being a DA1, DA2, and then the Speech Therapy Aide. He would always make your day brighter especially if  you were having a rough day. As many know he loved to sing and listen to music. Anything from "Hey, Jude" by the Beatles to here recently in speech his favorite request with me was "Elli, play Bicycle." He would sing it all the way through, but put emphasis on the part where they sing, "Fat bottom girls they will be riding today," it would crack me up every time. Also he would sing the national anthem all the way through and to my surprise he also knew the U.S. Marine Corp Song. In speech on Fridays, we would make a craft. My favorite one to help him make was the late Father's Day Card that we sent to his dad. He enjoyed telling me what to write on it and especially liked "signing" his own name. He will be truly missed and it will never be the same at HHC or in the Therapy Departments without him. 

Bobby touched the lives of many and he will be greatly missed by everyone.  Praying that you’ll find comfort in your memories of him  and in the knowledge that others are missing him, too.

Bobby you will be missed by many. I took care of bob when I was a da at Ross gallop. Later in my time his housekeeper. I’ll always remember bob spinning his  frisbees  and  taking him to work. He loved hey Jude by the Beatles . I remember bob singing these words mostly. “Hey Jude, don't make it bad Take a sad song and make it better ”. I’ll always remember him  passionate  About his music and how he enjoyed visits with his dad. There are so many fond memories to share that place a smile on my face and memory’s cherished by my heart forever. My friend it was a pleasure being able to care for you. Rest easy tonight as I listen to Vince Gill’s go rest high on that mountain these words  Touched me the most “Oh, how we cried the day you left us. We gathered round your grave to grieve. I wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing.”  Forever in my hear rest easy my friend. 


Words cannot express the tremendous light, that Bob was, for so many people. He was always a character and could make people laugh. He will forever be in our hearts. We will always remember his smile and the way he laughed, the way he would sing songs and sometimes get louder and louder with them, the way he loved twirling his Frisbees on his finger, and the way he used to love to sit and rock in his rocking chair. I loved his heart and the compassion that he showed when someone was having a bad day. 

Bob I have always enjoyed watching you laugh and play around. Especially when you were pretending to be a zombie or make monster sounds. I really enjoyed being able to take you out to places like the movies or at the park for a bbq. My most found memory was when we went to St . Louis to go the zoo, then every time he seen me he always talked about going to St. Louis to the zoo and the things he seen and did while at the zoo. 
Thank you for being such a wonderful fun loving guy you will for sure be missed and you are very loved. I’m grateful that I was able to work with you 

Bob, I always loved hanging out with you. You were so sweet when you talked about your dad and your love of frisbees, and especially when you sang. You always remembered my baby's name (Wyatt), that his room is green, and I live on a farm. I will always remember you, buddy. Rest in peace.

I can definitely say working with Bob over the last several years was a fun adventure!! Bob touched so many hearts for sure and he knew how to put a smile on your face! I’ll never forget him always finding a way to get over to the piano we had in the day hall to hit the legs on it and then always laughed about it. He did things he loved for sure and had a smile when he did it. You will forever be missed Bob! We love you so much! Rest easy buddy!

So many memories when someone has been a part of your life for 55 years. I love the stories shared by the loving staff at Higginsville.. Staff is not the right word, you became Bobs’ extended family and as a result, ours too. Many of you escorted him to our family holidays, at the expense of you own free time. For this we are forever blessed. Sing songs, eat m&ms, goldfish and popcorn and French fries, and wash it down with a Coke (not a Pepsi) and remember the good times and laughs Bob provided! Thank you will never be sufficient. 

I am so sad to hear that Bobby passed away.  I worked with Bobby at the work area at Higginsville Habilitation Center for years.  Bobby always asked me to play music from the Beatles and he loved to sing their songs.  We never got much work done but Bobby sure made the day so much better.  You will be truly missed by all.

My heart is so heavy tonight, Bob was my favorite client and I loved him dearly. Words cannot Express my feelings for his family and everyone who Bob has touched. He was such a free spirit, wild and all over amazing. I would ask Bob to sing to me.. and he would always say " I dont wanna. " but he did. He made me laugh and I enjoyed the time I got to spend with him while I worked at HHC. He touched my heart and he made an imprint on it, hes truly missed and when I look up at the sky at night I know he will be the brightest one shining down. 


Robert was one of my favorite people. He made my days coming to work enjoyable. I will always remember how much he loved his frisbees. I will forever miss you.

Bob we all loved you. You made us laugh. Your spirit in everything you done. You was almost always happy. We will miss you rest in peace fly with the angels.

I worked with Bob 17 of my 25 years at Higginsville Habilitation Center. Bob had a wonderful sense of humor and always wanted to be on the go.  He had the cutest smile and the most onery laugh. He loved the sound of the fire alarm as he pulled it, he loved spinning his frisbee's, also cannot forget his love of chocolates and Christmas mornings. Bob you will forever be in my heart and memories. I loved caring for you, it was my pleasure to do so! 

Robert what can I say I have work with Bob for several years and my most funny memory of Bob was last year I took him to Chiefs Training camp in St. Joe and there was a little girl standing next to us and Bob said she a baby I replied yes and he said she is little girl can I eat her and laughed, of course I told Bob no and he said why. Bob you will be missed and have impacted my life thank you for always being you.
