I was crushed when I heard the news of my Papaw Bobby's passing. But I know he loved me and my kids, and we loved him.  And I’m so lucky for having him in my life for as long as I did.

     My papaw taught me all about Archery, particularly how to get over target panic. He use to stand behind me and remind me to slowly pull the trigger on my release, so I wouldn’t punch it and miss the target. He used to call me his “State Champion”. He was always so proud of me in everything that I accomplished.

     I’ll never forget when we when to a bow fishing tournament. My papaw told the judges that I was the captain of our boat. They gave me a prize for just being a female captain. We had a great time out on the water. We always had a great time together.  

    I love you papaw. Thank you for loving us!
