I am so sorry to hear about Roby. Him and my Dad (Aubrey Taylor) go way back. He and Margie stood up for my Mom and Dad’s second marriage. Roby was one of the best men I have ever met. He was so full of life and he made me laugh every time I seen him. My Dad had his foot operated on and he couldn’t make it to his funeral, but he sure wanted to. God bless all of his family and our prayers are with you.
