Robert Bussiere

MSgt Robrt Bussiere was the very first 1st Sergeant for the 822 Security Forces Squadron. Although his job at the time was to advise commanders on the readiness, health, morale, welfare, and quality of life of Airmen and families to ensure a mission-ready force, he often went above and beyond those duties and made everyone feel a sense of belonging. As a newly activated unit, we were often challenged with difficult mission requirements, constant changes, and short suspense with every single task we did. Top always communicated the most frustrating and time consuming tasks with a smile, a sense of urgency, and pure motivation which became soothingly addictive to us all. The deployments, laughs, tears, serious, intellectual, and often compassionate conversations will always be remembered. On behalf of the Men and Women of SAFESIDE, we thank you for your service and will continue to cherish your memory. Rest on my friend.

So many memories, how do I pick just one?.The pink slippers? The dropped pizza? Having a fan to put u to sleep.for as long as I can remember? When you were afraid of trees, when you came to me for comfort whenever you were disciplined (which wasn't often, Mr. Baby of the family). The time you scared us to death when you knocked out a 3rd floor window.? My little brother I have lived you so long! It's hard thinking of world without you in it..I hope you've found peace, I hope you don't hurt anymore. Whenever I feel tears coming I will think.of that infectious laugh you had. Then I'll smile. Love you.brother!

Rest easy brother. I will always remember working with you at JRCC and the laughs shared.

Family of Robert Bussiere, My sincere sympathies in the loss of Bob. Unfortunately I never had the chance to know Bob though I have known Candace and her family since childhood. I have heard such wonderful stories about Bob and what a wonderful person he was. I pray that God will hold you all in his loving arms. He will give you the strength, comfort and peace you need during this most difficult time. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love and hugs.

Sad, sad loss. My condolences. Worked with Bob at Moody AFB as an AGE mechanic and then as First Sergeants. I’ll always remember his sense of humor and his dedication to his troops. RIP Bob.
