I did the inspection and pest control on Bobby's house for 20 years. He was always a very nice man to deal with. I found him to be humorous and a good way to catch up on the local news. I will miss him.

I always looked forward to running into Bobby at the restaurant in Beechmont. It just won't be the same without him.

Bobby was a family friend. He was very kind to our Dad, R.B (Pete) McElwain. He was the only one to send a memoriam to his church when he passed away. Bobby was very friendly always & took time to talk & visit with us. I believe him to be a very good man. We will miss him. Our thoughts & prayers are with the family.

Dear Tim and all the family, When I came to work at the IRS, Bobby and I quickly found a common interest in sports and fishing, which led to a friendship of nearly 50 years. I was fortunate to just happen to see Bob about three weeks ago in a doctor's offiec and we had a nice visit. I admired Bob for his love of his family and devotion to his Church. He would say every year that he would be dead in five years, and he finally got it right in 2007 after outliving many of his friends and family. I will miss seeing him at the annulal IRS employees and retirees get togethers, as he always had some humorous story to tell, often at his own expense. Bob Slack IRS, retired

Bobby's sister, Jo Ann, was our sister-in-law, but she was like a sister to us. She had a wonderful family, and Bobby was always there with a funny quip and a smile. He always made us laugh with his wonderful sense of humor. He will be greatly missed. We extend our deepest sympathy to Tim, Paula, Robin, Kelly, Todd and the whole family, and to all who knew and loved him. Aunt Lou and Uncle Bill

Tim, we were so sorry to hear of the death of Bobby. We would usually see and talk with him on our visits to Beechmont. He will be missed by so many and we certainly will miss his humor and friendship. Our family will be thinking of you and your family at this difficult time.9

Just wanted to say that I met Bobby at varous functions at Beechmont after he retired. I grew up with JoAnn, Tommy and knew Tommy's wife as a girl from Drakesboro School. They were all fine people. Bobby was especially kind when my father passed away in 2010 and sent a memorial donation to his church.

Tim ~ So sorry for the loss of your uncle. Bobby was such a wonderful, Godly man. I remember when Mom would take me and Bruce to Beechmont Church and worship with Pappaw Johnson. Bobby was always there. He will be missed by all. God Bless, Cindy +

So sorry for your loss. Uncle Bobby was a special man. I loved him and will miss him.

Bobby, How do I begin to speak of all the memories I have of you. I have known you since I was a small child and Mom, me and my brother lived in the house with your Granny Lyons. You, Tommy and Jo Ann would babysit me when Moma had to work. All three of you spoiled me rotten and I loved every minute of it. I grew up loving your family. Your sweet Moma, Tommy who was driver's Ed teacher and Jo Ann who would let me get into her makeup and I would go home with big red lips and Moma would throw a fit! But I thought I was so beautiful with that lipstick all over my face. Those were some of my favorite childhood memories. You always asked me "When I die are you going to come to my funeral". I always said, "Yes Bobby, but I'll probably die before you do, because you are too much of a stinker to die". Then you would say, "Well, I'm going to the restaurant to have my last meal". I so regret not being able to say goodbye, but you will always be in my heart and I'll have those memories of the way you always teased me and made me laugh and smile, everytime I saw you/ I pray you know how very much you were loved and how you brought joy to those whose lives you touched. Rest in peace my dear old friend. You will always be in my heart and memory and I look forward to someday meeting you again.

Ruby and I (R.C.) are from Belton and Twin Tunnels! For years we have talked to Bobby at the Buggie Shed and enjoyed his company! Things won't be the same with out him! I know every one in Beechmont will miss him! Our prayers are with the family! May God Bless you. Ruby & Raymond McElwain

I have many fond memories of Uncle Bobby. I first met him, his parents and his brother Tommy when I was a little girl, and my Uncle Bob from Drakesboro was dating his sister Jo Ann...who became my aunt when they married. Aunt Jo would take me to their home in Beechmont and I would get to stay the night with them, and eat some really good suppers. They were always very kind to me. I had such good times with them. The whole family made me feel very special. I also remember making visits to Louisville when Uncle Bobby lived and worked there. I always enjoyed his sense of humor...and the way he could tease. It always thrilled me to run into him at Ellis Park. He was a good man, and he will be missed. I extend my deepest sympathy to all his family. I am so sorry for your loss. Love, Cousin Donna

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
