What greater things is there for two human souls than to feel that they are joined for life; to strengthen each other in all labor, to rest on each other in all sorrow, to minister to each other in all pain and to be with each other in the silent, unspeakable memories in the moment of our last parting. I will love you forever and always. Your Wife,

I just heard that you're not hear anymore from a friend this morning. I enjoyed working as your assistant at Rochester Landscaping Technicians. You were always a light, so shine on! You were always raving about your family and that's what I most admired about you. You gave me and so many others a chance to enhance our job portfolio when we needed it most, so I say thank you for your vision, dedication and showing love to your community.
My heart goes out to your family. Peace and blessings.

I had the priviledge of working with Robert at Rochester Landscape Technicians Program. He was a gentle giant. I just spoke to him a few weeks ago and we committed to getting a cup of joe together. This is such a huge loss for his family and those like me who held him in our hearts ever so gently. My prayers go out to all who loved him. Joan Brandenburg
