My dear Ibbie and family,
So many wonderful memories of you and Rob over the years at Barton....anniversary dinners, family dinners, Holidays, golf events and more. I’m sad that I can’t be there to give you a hug in person, but know I have you and your family in my heart and prayers for always.
Love and hugs

I am so incredibly sorry to hear of your families loss. I have such fond memories of spending so much time at your house playing with Alice all those years ago. You and your husband always treated me so kindly and were always so inviting. Thank you for that. My condolences to your family during this painful and difficult time

Ibbie, I am so sorry and so sad to hear of Rob's passing. He was a wonderful man, and I enjoyed many memorable and funl times with Rob and you. While I have been away from Rob's beloved Ann Arbor for many years, some of his passion for Meeechigan has rubbed off on me, a MSU grad! Thank you, Ibbie, for your and Rob's friendship and hospitality. I will continue to root for the Wolverines, and I know that Rob is somewhere on the field rooting for the maize and blue. God Bless you, Ibbie,...

Ibbie,
that photo of Rob makes me want to talk right back at him.
So many years of being made to feel apart of your family.
Our business meetings, football games ,weddings ,and after Bob retired Rob always kept him up on the business news, and of course there was always the golf games.
Seemed like Pennsylvania and Florida didn’t make a difference. We still remained family.
We will always have our wonderful memories of Rob..
Ibbie and family, You are in our...

Rob and Ibbie were close friends . When we lived in Ann Arbor we played golf at Barton Hills and they were always guests of ours for parties we held at our home. When we moved to South Haven on Lake Michigan they came every summer for a long weekend. We had so much fun. Rob and Chuck had the same birthdays so we always celebrated them together at the lake.
Ibbie and Rob missed last summer due to his cancer and the pandemic. We plan on keeping the tradition with Ibblie.
We are so...

Rest In Peace Rob. You will be missed. Heartfelt condolences to Ibbie and all of Rob's family and friends. With deepest sympathy, The Casey's Crew.

Rob and Ibbie were the first few people my husband and I met when we moved to Ann Arbor. It turned into a warm friendship noted and celebrated at their Christmas parties, weddings of children, Rotary, or at the bar at Casey’s! Rob was always exuberant, charming, and solicitous. I miss him and can’t quite believe we
won’t see him around town.
