I have known Bobby for about 9 years. The time that I knew Bobby he was always sweet and kind to everyone that I knew. I would like to know more about what happened to Bobby and how it happened? It's hard to believe that he's not here anymore. But his memory will always be with us in our lives. And for the whole Twitty family I am truly sorry for your loss. R.I.P Bobby and be happy knowing that he was fighting for our country. We will miss him alot. He will always be with us.

Bobbie was a great person and a wonderful son. I have known him most of his life. I have so many fond memories of him when he was just a kid. When I heard of his decision to join the Marines I was so proud of him for his choice. Bobbie will be sorely missed , but I know he will be watching out for all of us until the day we are all together again. We LOVE YOU BOBBIE and we MISS YOU!!!
