I offer my prayers on Robert's death. Bobby and I were bowling partners in my freshman year at Nativity (1990-91), when he was a senior. I enjoyed his company and his sense of humor; I would come over to listen to Def Leppard songs, watch WWF wrestling and look at his artwork. God rest his soul and bring comfort to his loved ones.

Know that you will not be entering in to the gates of heaven on your own. Matthew and Steven will be waiting for you. May the angels lead you in. We all love and miss you.

June, Bob, & family,
I am truly sorry to hear about the loss of your son, Bobby. My heart aches for you. I know how deep the pain goes. Your pain will ease over time and I wish I could be there for you to help you during this trying time. My prayers and thoughts are with you and I hurt right along with you.
The Lord will see you through this June. I will call you later this week. May God bless you all.

My prayers go to the family of Robert. We went to St. Mary's together and used to play a lot when we were little. I lost touch with him when I moved from St. Clair. He was a fun guy to be with, I can only imagine how he was when he grew up.
I am very sorry to see him leave at such a young age. God will embrace him and make him safe. Take care Robert.

I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine, it may be six or seven years or twenty-two or three. but will you, till i call him back, take care of him for me.
and should the angels call for him much sooner than we planned, we'll brave the bitter grief that came and try to understand.
my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this tragic time. If you need anything please call.

Please don't sing sad songs for me, Forget your grief and fears,

For I am in a perfect place, Away from pain and tears.

I'm far away from hunger And hurt and want and pride,

I have a place in Heaven With the Master at my side

My life on earth was very good, As earthly lives can go,

But Paradise is so much more Than anyone can know.

My heart is filled with happiness And sweet rejoicing, too.

To walk with God is perfect peace, A joy forever new.

Rob was one of those people who always could cheer someone up just by being himself. I never was able to meet him personally, but he has made a huge impact on a profound number of people including myself, whether it was inspiring or simply offering up a quick joke. He will be missed, and my sympathies to the Stonelake family for their loss. The world has lost another upstanding individual especially at such a young age.
