Burial for Bobby Gilpin

Donation protected
Hello' family, friend's and neighbors, as you may have all heard by now my brother "Bud" Bobby passed away suddenly on New Year's Eve! I am still in shock & disbelief. All I keep thinking is we just lost our dad 14 months ago like how can this even be real life & Why.... He was just 43 years old, an all around good guy, never been in or caused any trouble, he was loyal, dependable,kind, funny & even a little smart ass-ish but we all are & just loved him for it even more! Bobby was without a doubt a devoted son, brother, father, stepfather & grandpa! All around devoted man, Been with Michelle for the past 17 yrs, worked his butt off everyday to provide for his family, his son Christopher is only 15 yrs old, his step daughter Cheyenne is married and has 2 baby boys that Bobby adored & with all this love, people & life left to live he is just gone! Bobby wasn't feeling well for a few days, he thought maybe he was coming down with something, He got home from work, fell asleep in his chair, Michelle went to wake him up to goto bed & he stood straight up, took a few steps & then he collapsed onto a metal baby gate. Michelle called 911 & was instructed on cpr, emt's got there in minutes, they worked on him at the house & all on the way to UC hospital. They got him upstairs & into surgery to repair a suspected massive heart attack. He hadn't took one breath on his own since his collapse & his heart wouldn't start back up, they determined he had no brain activity. His optopsy results in a week or so should tell us something about what or how this happened. Like most of us Bobby wasn't even thinking he would die so young. He didn't have life insurance & was living paycheck to paycheck even more so with the cost of food & things these days. My mom is just devastated & all I could think to do is just put this out here in hopes to at least lighten the financial burden on her heavy heart and mind! Thank you to all who reads my rambling on here. Bud if angels can see what we do...I love you so much I can't breath & don't get mad I put this out here. I know your a proud man who'd never ask for nothing so I'm asking for you.....
