Bobby was born to Paul and Martha (Curlo) in 1960 in Grand Island. When he was young, he was one hell of a ball player. He enjoyed baseball, softball, and basketball. He graduated from Centura High School in 1978 and worked at the Gibbon Packing Plant for many years. He then worked for the Ravenna Cheese Factory, and then returned to Gibbon Packing. He was also employed with Case New Holland which he enjoyed.

He loved watching all sports, hunting, fishing, and watching wildlife. He loved his Busch Light beer, driving the back roads, and gardening. He took pride in what he grew.  Bobby will truly be missed.

Bobby was married to Cindy Thomas on September 10, 1988, to which 3 daughters were born: Ashley (Nathan) Simpson, Alicia (Mike) Gorecki, and Amanda Bonczynski. Others left to cherish his memory include his 6 grandchildren, Kennedy and Jordan Simpson, Karsen, Mattie, Mason, and Bryce Gorecki; and extended daughter, Breanna Johnson.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Larry; nephew, Marty; mother-in-law and father-in-law, Kenny and Elaine Thomas.
