In Honor of Mike Quarry
This is for my brother Mike Quarry ,
who is set to be Inducted into the
Florida Boxing Hall of Fame on
June 24, 25, & 26 (2016) in Tampa, FL
My Name is Bobby Quarry, I am a retired Professional Heavyweight Boxer and the youngest and only surviving brother of the Legendary 'Quarry Brothers' which included; World renowned American Heavyweight Boxer Jerry Quarry (1945-1999) also know as 'The Great White Hype', Light Heavyweight Boxer Mike Quarry (1951-2006), and myself, Heavyweight Boxer Bobby Quarry.
My brother, Mike Quarry, passed away in 2006 at the age of 55 from pugilistic dementia, which was also the contributing factor that caused the death of our brother Jerry in 1999. Mike always felt like he didn't have his own idenity. At one time he even said "They might as well put on my epitaphy: Here lies Jerry Quarry's little brother". For the love of my Family, and strength of my Brotherhood, for the history of Professional Boxing and for the Honor, Glory and memory of my big brother Mike Quarry, I feel in my heart that its the only right thing that I be there for the ceremony, to represent and honor my brother and his boxing career and all that he accomplished for himself and for our family. My heart wants this so bad and I know Mike would want this too. I need to raise enough funds for a round-trip plane ticket to Tampa Florida and back home to Bakersfield California and a place to stay while im there for the three days. If you are not able to donate anything today I still thank you from the botton of my heart, I'm Bobby Quarry, the 'little brother' of the Great Legendary Light Heavyweight Hall of Famer Mike Quarry. Thank you very much for your time and for anything you may be able to donate, and for all the love the world has given to myself and to my family. In the spirit of the Quarry Brothers we thank you so much and may God Bless.
