You were always pouring yourself into others -- a true light. We worked together on Youth Staff at First Assembly years ago, and I remember those times with a smile. Your smile and your kind heart will always be remembered. Rest in peace, Robert.

I'm so sorry to hear about Robert. He was in my sister's High School class and his sister was in my class, and even though we had lost touch with them, I remember them well and always admired that Robert was in band with us and also played sports. I'm so sad to hear this and will be keeping all the family and loved ones in my thoughts and prayers.

Robert, I want to thank you for your genuine interest in my son Nick & I. Your support around the pool table made us feel welcome. When others would find themselves over indulged, rude, you would talk them down without disrespecting them. I can only remember you as a complete gentleman. Thank you for being a GREAT friend, you will definitely be missed.
