Cyndi Russell (Cummings) lit a candle

“In loving memory of Bobby Ed Cummings, I always remembered how my dad (Buddy) looked up to his big brother. We thought our uncle Bobby was rich and famous. We loved visiting him in Ft Myers and Defuniak Springs. Jeff and Donna were always the cool cousins and aunt Barbara Ann was a movie star. Uncle Bobby recently had stopped in to see me in Gville. He was the same happy guy I remembered. I hope he and my dad can go have some fun in heaven. My love 💓 to Jeff and Donna and the whole family”
