 "I was his Cinderella, and he was my prince charming. Even in his final days, he stayed strong for me. That’s who Bobby was – brave, gentle, and full of light. As he rested, I read him fan letters from all over the world – words of love and gratitude that lifted his spirits and reminded him of how deeply he was cherished," Poublon wrote. "He soaked up every word with that familiar sparkle in his eye. And yes, he still found time to crack well-timed jokes – Bobby had a wonderful, wicked sense of humor. It never left him. He could light up a room with a look, a quip, or one of his classic, one-liners."

Poublon noted that her late husband was "a man of service" who "traded sold-out concerts and magazine covers for the back of an ambulance, becoming an EMT and a trainer with the LAPD."

"He saved lives. He showed us what real heroism looks like—quiet, selfless, and deeply human," Poublon wrote. "Bobby is survived by his two sons, Tyler and Christopher, and six beautiful grandchildren.

"He lived with integrity, gave without hesitation, and loved with his whole heart. And though our family feels his loss profoundly, we also feel the warmth of his legacy – his voice, his laughter, his music, his mission."
