Robert was always such a sweet kid. My Husband Bob Matheny and I would visit his Dad. If Robert was there he always had a joke to tell us. My heart is with his family members.

My heart hurts knowing you are not here anymore Rob. I’m still in shock about your passing. You were my brother and my friend who was there for me to help pull me up out of the darkness. I only wish I could have helped you like you have helped me. Thank you for being my friend. Semper Fi my brother. Rest easy, Rest In Peace Rob.

My deepest sympathies to Robert's family. Words cannot truly express the sadness in my heart nor the grief I feel for you.

Really sorry to hear about this loss - Robby was such a great guy. He will be missed. Best wishes to his immediate family.

Robby was a great person, especially to my siblings and I. He used to baby sit us when I was 11. We had such a blast and looked forward to babysitting day. We would build forts outside and camp out when Beth lived on Fannin Hill in the cabin, he literally had me watch every scary movie ever made and I was so scared but he made everything better. I remember the day he enlisted and how hurt I was he was leaving us behind, I'm feeling the same way now. I have been thinking about Robby a lot for...
