Miss you Uncle Robbie! Wish I would have been able to spend a little more time with you the last couple years you were with us on this earth, but I do appreciate and cherish all the times we were able to spend with you. It sure would be nice for one more camping trip and one more pool tournament!
Love you,

Even though I talk to you every day as I drive your truck, tears still fill my eyes because I cant hear your voice or feel your arms around me telling me that everything will be alright.
