Remembering Bobby....

Today Marks The 2nd Anniversary Of My Son's Passing. I Chose This Photo Because Bobby And I Attended An Annual Pancake And Sausage Breakfast. I Attend Every Year And It Has Become A Tradition That My Bowling Team Also Attends Since It Always Lands On Thursday.
He Took This Photo From His Cell Phone. Just Another Memory Of Him I Can Cherish.
I Miss Him Terribly. Words Cannot Describe How My Heart Aches When I Think Of Him. I Can Remember The Conversations We Had The Summer Of 2010. I Told Him Sometime Down The Road I Would Like For Him To Carry On My Charitable Work In The Community. It Was Something He Believed In And Enjoyed Helping Me On The Truck. I Considered Him My Right Hand Man. He Told Me It Was An Honor That I Selected Him To Serve On The Board Of Directors Of The Robin Hood Foundation Of Danville. He Understood The Need For What We Provided To Those Less Fortunate. He Seen First Hand How We Obtained The Items And Who Received Them. In All The Years While He Was Growing Up He Knew What I Did But Never Fully Comprehended It Until He Became A Part Of It.
So Today I Cling Onto The Memories I Have Of Him. That's All There Ever Will Be Of Him. He Had Some Problems In His Life But Don't We All? I'm No Saint And Never Claimed To Be.
I Think We Sometimes Take Life For Granted. We Just Expect Things To Always Be The Same. Life Just Doesn't Work That Way And That Cold December Morning Reminded Me Of That. We Always Expect The Oldest Living Member Of Our Families To Go Next. It Doesn't Always Work Out That Way.
Many Lessons I Learned From My Son's Passing. I Found Out Who My Friends And Family Are. Yes I Said Family. You Just Assume Family Is Family. Through My Experience I Leaned Onto Those Closest To Me In Life. They Are The Ones Who Helped Me Get Through This. Sometimes It Takes A Tragedy In Life To Find Those Who Really Matter. It Sure Was A Wake Up Call In My Life. I Know Now Who Matters Most In My Life. You May Sense Some Bitterness In My Words And In My Opinion It's Justified. I Think It's Always Good To Know Who Matters The Most In Your Life. I Try Not To Put Too Much Of My Personal Life In My Blog. I Try To Keep It Simple. I May Have A Story Or Experience To Share. I Try To Keep My Blogs Upbeat And Positive. I Try Not To Ever Air Out Dirty Laundry Through My Words. The Words I Leave Behind After I Am Gone You Can Reflect On What Mattered Most In My Life. Some Days You Can Enjoy A Moment Of Laughter. Others Can Be A Reminder How Much I Enjoyed Pranking Someone If I Can Get By With It.
Whether You Laugh Or Cry After Reading My Blog, Let It Show You The Real Me. I Am The Real Deal. You Take Me For Who I Am.
I Will Always Love You Bobby Miller. May You Rest In Peace. One Day We Will Reunite And Spend Eternity Together.
