2024 INDUCTEE

Bobby Lolley, RN

HCAF Executive Director (2008-2024) • Past President, HCAF Board of Directors

In 2024, we proudly inducted Bobby Lolley, RN, into the HCAF Home Care Hall of Fame, celebrating his remarkable career and enduring impact on the home care community. Bobby retired is after nearly 16 years as HCAF's Executive Director.

Bobby's tenure at HCAF was marked by an unwavering commitment to advocacy, education, and support for Florida’s home care providers. His exceptional leadership, heartfelt dedication, and strategic vision helped shape the association into a leading voice in the industry. Through his tireless efforts, Bobby advanced our cause, fostered professional growth, and built strong networks that empowered home care providers to excel.

Bobby’s legacy extends beyond his professional accomplishments. His infectious enthusiasm, inspiring leadership, and genuine friendship have left an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege to work with him. His departure leaves a void that will be felt deeply, but his influence and contributions will continue to resonate within the organization.

Bobby's dedication to the Association remained steadfast, but he made the difficult decision to step down due to health reasons, prioritizing HCAF's future well-being. He has been candid about his condition, facing the challenges of Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA), logopenic variant, compounded by asymptomatic Parkinson’s which may exacerbate a frontotemporal dementia disorder. This condition has most notably impacted his speech. We are so thankful that he is in the early stages and hopeful for many well-deserved and fulfilling retirement years ahead. He remains very physically active, and looks forward to staying connected.

We are so very fortunate to be able to share a conversation Bobby and Cindy Lavoie had in early May 2024 talking about his remarkable career, the legacy he leaves behind at HCAF, and his hopes for the future.

Thank you, Bobby, for your unparalleled service, dedication, and being such a great friend to home care! Your impact on HCAF will be felt for years to come. Congratulations on your well-deserved induction into the Home Care Hall of Fame!
