Not sure what to say?

So sorry for your loss. Thinking of you today. Audlane Pedley and Nancy Wood.

Rob had such a kind soul that is what I will always remember. My heart goes out to his family and band members.

I didn't know Rob very well, he played on my golf league. He was a good golfer, I am a terrible golfer. I always enjoyed playing against him because he was always friendly and had a way about him that made a bad golfer feel at ease on the course and in the clubhouse. I wish that I'd gotten to know him better. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

We're so sorry to hear about Rob. Sorry we can't be there. Our prayers are with the Barton family.

I was shocked and sad to hear the news of Rob`s passing. My heart, thoughts and prayers,goes out to the Barton family.

My favorite neighbor. I will miss you forever!

Rob and I were really good friends while attending Belmont Elementary, River Valley, and Rockford Junior High. I have many good memories of him, including summer visits to Deer Park Funland and Lake Michigan; hanging out at North Kent Mall; singing together in the choir at Park Congregational Church; sixth grade principal Mrs. Havens making Rob and Anne Trent be the demonstration couple for square dancing; and a young excited Rob outbidding himself in a baked goods auction at Belmont...

He was a thoughtful friend that will be missed.
