My deepest condolences on the passing of Robert. When I was attending the same church as Robert we would work on projects, and had many inspiring conversations on how to move things forward. He was always striving for the betterment of life, and to make this world a little brighter place to be. May he rest peacefully now in the arms of his Lord, and Savior Jesus.
