Robert ‘Bobby’ Carl Lange, age 56, of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma passed on Friday, October 26, 2018 after a courageous, year-long battle with cancer. Bobby was born September 28, 1962 in Hartford, CT as the second of three children. He was raised in Tulsa and graduated from Union High School in 1980. Bobby worked at Hajoca in Tulsa, Oklahoma for 28 years. He was a dedicated employee and was one of the most accomplished salesmen in the region. He genuinely enjoyed driving across Oklahoma to check on his customers, deliver a piece of equipment, or just drop off doughnuts.Bobby loved spending time with family, especially his grandchildren. His generous childlike presence warmed those around him with laughter and joy. Bobby greatly enjoyed boating, fishing, hunting, and the beach. His favorite toys were his .30-30 rifle and Franchi shotgun. However, he was most happy when sharing these activities with friends and family. Some of his favorite memories were at Fort Gibson Lake and the Caribbean islands with loved ones. Bobby was always eager to serve others – day or night – his support for anyone in need made him loved by all.
