How do you say good-bye to one of the biggest hearts that ever walked the earth? How can you believe that one of the world’s most infectious laughs will be forever silent? To have known Bobby Harris is to have known love, authenticity, joy, and deep, deep friendship. As his “adopted” daughter described him, “He adopted anybody that was worth the love. He gave it tough and genuine every time. There was nothing too small he wouldn’t celebrate.”
And then there was his spirit. Deep, and wide. And his propensity to work, to push himself harder and longer than his precious heart could sustain. Bobby never asked anybody for anything. His pride would not allow it. His instincts would only allow himself to give. And Bobby gave all that he had, all that he could, every day of his life.
If Bobby ever gave you something ~ a smile, a laugh, a favor, a hug ~ please consider giving back to him on this platform so that he can, truly, rest in peace.
