Mom always shared the story about this time when I was a little girl running around the beach cabin, and Pep had just gotten to the best part of the cinnamon roll he had been eating, and I ran by and bit it right of his hand. Summers at Bobby and Pep's. Those were memories I will always have. Love you, Pep. Thanks for saving the best part for me. Love, Ashlynn

You and Bobbie mean so much to me. I hurt that you are gone but I know that Bobbie is so happy to be with you again. I know you are looking down on us with your BIG smile on your face because you have found peace again. There isn't a day that goes by that I haven't thought of Bobbie. Seeing you the last few months has really made it easier for me except that you are not with us anymore. I love you guys so much and I will think of you and Bobbie everyday.
