Robert “Bobby” McCain Jr. was born on Feb. 22, 1961, in South Bend, IN to Geraldine (Moore) Johnson and Robert Henry McCain Jr. He was a lifelong resident of the West Side of SB. Bobby worked at Memorial Hospital in South Bend for quite some time. He also provided lawn care services to many residents and businesses. Bobby had many other talents as well. He was a great dad, brother, uncle and friend. He was a reliable guy and definitely a people person. There were two things Bobby didn’t like late people and people who didn’t clean up behind themselves. You could depend on him to put a smile on your face and speak what's on his mind. No person was a stranger to Bobby, he will be truly missed.
