Uncle Bobby, I don’t know where to start! Always up for a laugh, I got in trouble at school for telling everyone my uncle Bobby had a wooden leg, he proved it by knocking on it many times, if only I had noticed that your other hand was knocking on the wooden side table!
The time Mandy and Angela were pretending to be French to the kids on our estate and he came out dressed up with a plate of garlic bread and his finest Italian accent!
And the time he hung all mums used tea bags on the line to dry so all the street could see!
I am so glad that my Billy got to spend so much time with you, even letting him watch shows about ghosts when it scared him! And sword fighting with Bobby, Billy and Liam when they were little resulting in his nick name Uncle Bobby Black Eye!
Always ready to cook my dinner when I was on holiday and after one funny incident where I missed out on dinner while out visiting he made me a late night snack. From then on he always served everyone else their dinner then said to me “oh what are you having for dinner’ laughing then bringing my dinner! I’ll miss that joke!
Uncle Bobby you told Mandy and I off once for watching a sad movie and crying, and told us we better cry like that when you go!
I kept my promise Uncle Bobby and cried you a river.
As Nana Rose always said good night god bless x x
Love and strength to all the family ♥️
