Not sure what to say?

I was thinking yesterday, as Dylan gave his talk at the Assembly, how proud my brother will be of all of you as you continue to hold the course. I know his absence is felt everyday, and I look forward to your grand reunion!! Please know that just as his example was powerful, yours surely is too!!! I love you all.

Sure look forward to hearing his next talk and seeing his smile!!!

Rob was one of the finest, most genuine and loving brothers I have ever known. So thankful for the wonderful hope of seeing him again. His God, Jehovah has Rob in his memory and will soon restore him to life and to his family.

Justin Caldwell,
Thank you so much for your kind words and heartfelt expressions! I can assure you that Dad would've remembered every one of those things and plenty more in regards to you. You have been and always will be a part of our family as well! He was so proud of the spiritual man you turned out to be!! He would mention you often and we would all reflect on the "good old days". You always had a special place in his heart! Thank you again, and keep making Jehovahs heart rejoice!!...

To the West Family,

I can't put into words how sad I was when I got the news of Rob's passing. I have so many nice memories of spending time with your family in Memphis, TN, as well as in Alaska when I would visit for the summers. Rob was such an excellent example of being a spiritual man who loved Jehovah dearly, but didn't take himself too seriously. Rob taught me how to swim, and the first time I got behind the wheel of a car was at Rob and Denise's house when he taught me to drive...

Just heard the sad news of your passing, today. It was a pleasure meeting you and having our short conversations. Your love of family was enviable. My sincerest condolences to your entire family...especially Jayson and Dylan. Rest in Peace.

Dear Dad,
I never really got the chance to tell you this, so I'm going to write it so that everyone else can see.

On October 11, 2015 I faced the hardest challenge I had ever faced up to that point of my life. I lost a man that I truly loved with all my heart! A man I went to anytime I had a decision to make. A man I could count on ANYTIME I needed ANYTHING! A man that for my entire life, there was very few days that I didn't have the 'privilege' of being around him.
It was...

Love you Rob.
See you on the flip side.

It has been nice to see and hear from so many that were touched by my dad. He was one that I could ALWAYS go to for anything. I didn't know how much I took his love and time for granted until I no longer have it. He never was too busy for me. I have to pray daily for patience cause I can't wait to see him again- his smile, his smirk, and give him his welcome back fist bump. I keep imagining what our reunion will be like. I try and picture how nice the parks will be in the new system, and...
