BOBBY WAS ONE OF THE FIRST MEMBERS OF THE HALF BEATS  (GARAGE  BAND) ON RHYTHM GUITAR. WE PLAYED TWO ASSEMBLIES AND  SCHOOL DANCES , AS WELL AS TEEN CLUBS , & LATER , NORFOLK & VA. BCH. NIGHT CLUBS. OTHER BAND MEMBERS WERE STAN MORSON,BOBBY BOOTH, KARL KEEFER, AND ME. LATER, HE BRIEFLY JOINED REMNANTS OF THAT BAND RENAMED THE FORIVUS FOUR FOR GIGS IN NAGS HEAD ,ETC.  I HAVE A RECORDING OF THE HALF BEATS WITH BOBBY ON BOARD MADE IN 1960. BOBBY ALSO WENT ON TO BECOME A JET FIGHTER PILOT. I BELIEVE HE SURVIVED THAT STINT AND DIED AT A LATER TIME, BUT I CAN'T BE SURE. BOBBY ALWAYS SEEMED FOCUSED ON INTELLECT.
