Bobby Washington

       40 years knowing Bobby Ray, Ray was the type of person that did not like to argue but, he would make you laugh and make you cry. When he knew he was right, he would say "make sense", there was nothing else for you to say but, " yes Ray that makes sense". Growing with Bobby I learned the good, bad and the ugly. He taught me how to cha-cha, how to shoot pool in our teenage years and how to work on cars. Bobby was the kind of guy that didn't have the riches he wanted but his heart was very rich. He was a problem solver when you couldn't figure something out, he would. I've seen him give a person food, clothing and a place to come and get out of the heat or rain. He didn't have much but what he had he shared even with someone he didn't know. Bobby always had said "that could be me one day". He was a fix-it-man, My daughter always called him "Sweet and Precious" and he called her his "Meanny".

Bobby will truly be missed and he will always be sweet and precious to me.

Miss Me, But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free,
Miss me a little, but not too long,
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It’s all a part of the Master’s Plan,
A  step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,

Miss me, but let me go.
