Robert Kenneth Booker Obituary

 

Robert “BeBe” Kenneth Booker was born in Pittsburgh PA, on April 27, 1980, to Lavenia Webb and Robert E. Booker. 


He grew up in the Point Breeze area. He attended Homewood, Montessori school for elementary and In 1998 he graduated from Taylor Allderdice High School. Bebe took some time to sit down to mature and grow. During that time in 2013, he met the love of his life Danya Kelly. 


Bebe worked as a truck maintenance man for R & R Trucking. Bebe really admired the owners Damon and Chanel Givner. He looked to them for inspiration and decided that he would go to the Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics. Bebe was so proud of himself. He made a FB post patting himself on the back. He worked for FTC trucking As a company driver. In 2019 he became an entrepreneur and an “Owner operator” starting DRB Trucking. He loves driving his dump truck and being his own boss. 


In 2021 he and Danya became one. Besides being a father to his three children and starting his business, this was the happiest day of his life. Bebe was a loving, pleasant, well-mannered person. To know him was to love him. He was hilarious. He knew how to turn any situation into a hard-core laugh. Bebe loved all types of music and enjoyed singing. Singing was actually one of his hidden talents that a lot of people didn’t know. Some would say he had a voice like Luther, Big Luther. He loved spending time with family and friends. His spirit was contagious and his love for you was deeply embedded. In his spare time, he was a Facebook celebrity. Fred would call him Beabe Harvey, cause his posts were both inspirational and comical. He was an all-around 24-hour guy. A person who was there for you. Doing whatever it takes to remain authentic and consistent. 


He is preceded in death by his grandparents. Robert and Carrie Booker, David and Luvenia Webb, Uncles Jesse Booker, Preston Webb, and Aunt, Regina Booker.


He will be missed by many family and friends.
