He has been such a positive influence on my life from that Bobby concert when I was 7 sitting in the balcony, waving the peace sign - to exchanging a few letters with him about my writing — to meeting him in 1998 at a teen idol concert in Myrtle Beach - to singing along with Hey Mr. Sun every morning of the pandemic to get me through — Bobby, thank you so very much for being you and for sharing your talent and your character with us. Praying for you,' one person commented on the post. 'So very sorry to hear this. Will keep him in my prayers. He's been so gracious to so many over the years,' another person wrote. 'Thank you for letting us know. I loved him in Here Comes the Bride. He has given so much of himself to so many fans over the years; sharing his gifts, talents and kindness with us,' someone else commented on the post.
