Robert Vincent Brandstrom

My prayers our with the family and friends, I thank god that I had the pleasure to meet Cheryl and at the time the little ones. While in the Marines in the 70's I met Rob through Michael and Randy, I took up surfing and we had spent a bit of time paddling the Pacific. Robert thank you for sharing your time with us.

Surfing won't be the same without you, Robbo. There was only one Kahuna at the Harbor. Thanks for all the fun times... .

Robbo was a great guy and fixture at the Jetty. He always waited for the big ones on the outside. I used to sit out the back with him and listen to his funny travel stories. He was always smiling and loved to surf no matter what the conditions were. Thanks for always being there. We miss you Rob.

Robbo always had a story to share with friends in the lineup at the Jetty, and was ever the optimist about the conditions. He shared his wonderful attitude even with those of us who are not part of the O'side dawn patrol crew, but just periodically surf there. Thank you Robbo for all the good times.

You will be greatly missed,I enjoyed our talks,Stories were awesome. Our prayers go out to your family. Frank Caratachea & all here at Escondido Auto Tech.

The surfing tribe has lost a great brother. We miss you Rob.

Cheryl I am sadened to hear of your loss. He was such a kind and caring person. My prayers are with you and your family. Ellen (who use to work at med-rx drug) Take care and may God Bless you all

Rob we sure had some great times at the house in Redlands. They must have waves were you are going. I will never forget.

RIP Rob. You will be in the hearts and minds of the south jetty dawn patrol regulars for the rest of our lives. The world has lost a truly great guy.
