Im going to miss your phone calls, you could always make me laugh when you called me or I called you. now you will be with your brothers and your mother and be cancer free.R.I.P. Uncle Robert I Love You!!
Uncle Robert I can’t even tell you how much I have enjoyed getting to know you over the last couple of years. I will truly miss talking to you and hearing your laughter and your stories you would tell me. I am so grateful for the time we have had to get to know each other, Coughing and Wheezing together because of our lung disease. We laughed alot over that one. We had a lot in common. Im just glad that we could laugh together about it. Although this is a time of such sadness and loss for so many of us down here. I know that it is a time of Celebration for you up there. As Ironic has it is, my mama used to tell me that the 13th was a bad day. Her mother also died on the 13th, Her cancer was diagnosed on the 13th. Dad’s cancer diagnosed on the 13th you left us on the 13th. So ask her for me. Is the 13th still a bad day? It’s a bad day here on earth but for all of you it is a day of celebration to see each other again and you are all pain free and living new and healthy life’s. Your the only uncle I ever really got to know and I’m really going to miss talking to you. I felt your presents around me when you left and I heard this voice say,..BYE BYE..lol. I was getting pretty good at that. But when I sensed that I had to look around to see if someone was around me…lol. I’ll miss us saying good bye like that. I guess we better start working on HELLOOOOOO…for when we met again. lol. We always laughed over the craziest things. Im glad no one ever recorded our conversations. They would think we were nuts…lol. I already miss you and I am really kicking myself for not calling back and asking aunt Jane to put the phone to your ear so I could talk to you. I know you would have heard me. Im so sorry. I know better when my instincts tell me do to something, I need to do it. Uncle Robert I always laughed at your nickname Doughboy. But I could never call you that…tell mama that’s her doing there..lol. I won’t say good bye. I’ll just say I’ll see you later….Doughboy!! lol. There, I did it…lol. I love you and enjoy your new heavenly life with all your friends and family up there. Most of all thank you for being you and for sharing so much with me and making me laugh till I had tears coming down my face. I Love you and will miss you! BYE BYE!!
