I never met or worked with Bobby Gibbs, but my cousin Gary Henry and his wife Zoeanna said that he was a great guy and that’s enough for me. I found this picture in my collection of  photos so I published it for you to see. Perhaps  one of these days I will have the opportunity to meet Mr. Gibbs. 5/31/09. Today I found out from Judy Jacobs that Bobby Gibbs is no longer with us, I am about three years to late in knowing this fact.

    Hello Ivan, Thanks for the pictures and nice words on my brother Bobby. He is a American Circus Legend and is missed by many. We toured with you and your Dad on the Castle Show. Gary is like a brother to me we have been thru a lot togeather in our circus days. Gary is one tough guy with what he has been thru with is health. I live in Las Vegas now and out of the circus biz but still follow all my old friends thru all the great blogs. I found your on Buckles Blog. Thanks for a very nice blog. Casey Gibbs
