In Remembrance

In the early morning hours of last Saturday, August 13th, my Mom’s older brother finally succumbed to the cancer he had been diagnosed with last summer.В  He was 66.

В My memories of him are mainly from when I was young.В  His two sons were close in age to myself and my siblings so we were fairly close growing up.В  My Uncle served in the Navy as a young man in the mid-1960sВ and then later became aВ  postman which В he did until he retired a fewВ years ago.В В В В В

One of my favorite memories of Uncle Bobby was about 20 years ago a cousin of mine was getting married in Florida.В  The wh*le family flew down for the wedding.В 

My aunt, his older sister, had arranged for us to go tubing down this river while she prepared for the wedding.В  I remember Uncle Bobby sitting in the inner tube with his cut-off denim shorts and white t-shirt.В  He was laughing.В  For some reason that sticks out in my mind the most.В В 

The memorial service is today.В  Uncle Bobby, you will be missed, but never ever forgotten!
