12 years later I still miss you so much to the point you still cross my mind every day. I will never forget how crazy our hangouts were in middle school and how you got me into so many of my interests that still occupy me to this day. I make sure to post memorial posts of you on Social Media so people will know who you are Robert. Until we meet again you forever in my memories Robert.

Jessie and Family,
We were so very sorry to see that Robert had died. Our prayers will be with you Jessie and the rest of Robert's family. The last time I saw him was at Alexis' Birthday party a few years back. He looked like the same sweet little boy that was always at your games. Our hearts break for all you have been through. Remember Jessie we love you.
Love always,
The Goins'

I'm so sorry to read about Robert's passing in the paper. I knew him to be a sweet,cute and loving boy. I will pray for everyone who new him, this will be a long road. He is now in Heaven with his mother, and now there is no pain, only happiness.... He will be truly missed by everyone who new him.
