To the family, Bobby’s unwavering love of freedom allowed him to meet many people around the United States. They loved his kindness and giving spirit.  

Bobby graduated from Washington County High School, Sandersville Georgia in 1974 after which he signed up and went to a Job Corp training program where he learned cooking skills.  He later joined the U.S. Army and was stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia as a military chef.
