After two adorable daughters, named, June and Marilyn, Eva and Ches Haines, rang the bells with delight, announcing the birth of their baby boy. Bobby was as close to a cherub as any child ever born, and with his curly brown hair, sparkling blue eyes and a sweet disposition, like no other.
Little Bobby, though having two doting sisters, was
all-boy, growing up loving fast cars, cowboys and pretty girls. Bobby's parents encouraged his adventurous nature, knowing someday he'd grow up to be a man they'd be proud of.
And yes, Bobby did grow to be a fine young man, devoted to God, Country and Family, wanting nothing more than to someday find the perfect girl, settle down and raise a family.
Bob, with his sister's June and Marilyn.
So it wasn't that unexpected, when he fell in love with a beautiful young girls named Jackie, four years his junior. Bob knew, she was the one! Jackie was the new girl in school from Arizona, a cowgirl now living in Chicago.
She was Independent and adventurous, with beautiful blue eyes and a stunning figure. However, when her family returned to Arizona in her senior year, Bob wanted to follow her, but his parents said absolutely no!
"Not so fast - she's too young, you're making a mistake." his mother Eva, said. But, he'd been raised to be his own man and Jackie was the woman he wanted. He followed his sweet 16 year old girlfriend out West and and stayed until she turned seventeen.
As soon as she graduated from High School in 1953, she and Bob married at the Church in Prescott Arizona, Bob and Jackie were so in love, nothing could stop them.

Now that's a Love Story.
Jackie lost her beloved Bob a couple years ago but is surrounded by her big family and is loved by all.
