From that day on, Robert always watched out for Jimmy, all the way until he graduated from high school......I found out Jimmy was one of those kids that used to eat lunch all alone, at a table in the corner.....Robert saw this, and he and the kids he ran with, started eating with Jimmy.......and most of all these kids that grew up together, became fire fighters, policemen, or EMTs.....so they still all live and work right here in our community....we just saw Robert last weekend at a bar-b-q at the fire station.....Thank you again for your prayers and condolences.....

OMG, what a tragic loss of such a good human being.

I am so sorry for your loss. It takes a special person to do the job they do. Prayers for your family and the families of those firefighters.

Judy I'm so very sorry for you and Jimmy's loss of your good friend Robert.
He was a very special young man....I'm so glad you were there to help your son through this....our Lord does work in mysterious ways.
Prayers for our fallen hero's and their families. I hope his memories will bring you and your son some peace....(((HUGGZZ)))

This makes my heart ache for Robert's family. Jimmy and you. Robert sounds like he was a very special person his whole life. I'm praying that Jimmy will be able to accept what has happened and find peace. May God Bless you both and all that have been affected by the loss of these heroes.

We are expecting over 30,000 people from all over the country to attend their funeral....we heard that when we had gone to visit with Roberts momma....she smiled and joked, Robert would love that! He would love knowing he had touched 30,000 people enough that they would show up for his funeral!

Sending prayers.

I'm sure it was very sad for both of you to see Robert's mom and that it helped you both to cope with such a tragic loss. You have been through so much recently, and I pray that things get better for you. I hope you are feeling much better physically today and that the swelling has gone down.

Yorkiemom1 · 06-01-2013, 07:00 PM

I have been so tied up with Jimmy and dealing with this situation, I forgot all about my face and the swelling, until I got to Roberts mommas house....and she mentioned it....and then I realized I was out in public, looking like QuasiMoto....OMG.....I just hope this has gone down by Monday......I am going to have to go into work with a pillowcase over my head!

MandiesMom · 06-01-2013, 07:19 PM

Judy,
I have no doubt in my mind that He made the situation be as it was and allowed you to be home with Jimmy when the news came to him.

What a sad world it is sometimes. I see idiot people driving SUVs into tornadoes and living, while a mother and child get sucked out of their vehicle and killed. Heroes like Robert die fighting for us while others do hazardous things in the name of fun and survive. Don't get me started on who gets lungs and who doesn't.

His plan is His plan and I try to remember that. Prayers for you to feel better, Jimmy to be able to get through this, and for peace for the family of Robert. Hugs!

yorkietalkjilly · 06-01-2013, 07:32 PM

I saw the pictures of those killed and two of them were named Robert and it was so sad to see those sweet faces smiling in better times and know how they died, trying to help people by stopping a fire. Such a huge tragedy. I'm praying for all of their loved ones and friends.

Yorkiemom1 · 06-02-2013, 12:59 AM

Robert Bebee is the Robert that is our friend.....I still can not believe he is gone from here...his daddy works overseas, and he is coming home now....he was just here in the States and left to go back overseas a couple of weeks ago. What a blessing that he and Robert got to see each other this last time.

Judy, Thinking of you, Jimmy and the families. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
