I didn't know this was here, I was unable to attend the funeral when Robert died, - snow storm, not important because the great memories I have of him up at the lake, competing and running the back roads to beat him back to the cottage, I will always remember that smirk he would get on his face when he lost. Good sport and tons of fun. I miss him so often, when I think of the music he introduced me to and that kind way that he treated me and was my friend. You can't beat a friend like that. Thanks for the memories Robert, you are MISSED.

Stacy and Robbie
You may not remember me but I was Crickets partner for years. Robbie was a big part of our lives when my daughter Carly was born as well as a life long friend of Cricket. Carly and I (Leesa) have many memories of Robbie telling us stories and entertaining us for hours. He always knew how to make you laugh! Our thoughts go to your family - he will be missed by many.

For the Walton Family - I found this old minor hockey photo with Rob.

I'm so sorry to hear of Rob's passing. Rob, Donny O'donohue and I played hockey together for the Toronto Bruins as young boys and spent a lot of time together visiting each other at our parent's homes. The three of us were good buddies and I have a lot of fond memories. Rob's friends and families will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I attended school with Bob for a short time. My fondest memory of Bob is when I took my brother Stephen, who had cerebral palsy to watch a charity ball game at the Orr-Walton camp. Bob went out of his way to introduce Stephen to Booby Orr and his brother Mike. Stephen was so delighted, Bob's act of kindness has always remained with me.
