Aunt Kay, Robin, Tony and Grandchildren, It is still hard to believe Uncle Robert is not with us (in body) anymore. But I am certain that he knew how much he was loved and appreciated by his family and friends. I will truly miss him as I know you will. But I pray that a fresh supply of God's grace will carry you in the days, weeks, and months to come. God truly is the God of all comfort and He knows your hurt and sorrow. But, “earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal”. May He give you all a Peace that passes all understanding and may your strength be renewed like an eagle. I love you guys and want you to know that you all planned and carried out a Homegoing Celebration for Uncle Robert that would surely, surely please him. The love and the tributes expressed for him at his service was matchless. May God bless and keep you. If you ever need someone to lean on please don't hesitate to call. Love you all!
