There is not a day that has gone by dad that my heart has not thought of you and miss you still. This would have been your 101 year. Continue to celebrate in the presence of the Lord!

I miss you Mr. Chambers. You were a gentle giant and one of the best cooks ever. I have fond memories of my home away from home. It was my refuge at times. Continue to rest in peace sweet man.

I give my deepest sympathy to the family and he was like a father to me with giving me advice and just taking about the news because he would be on the porch reading the paper, he will truly be missed. Love you all Faith Yvette Simms Tribbey

To The Family of Robert Chambers,
May the Lord continue to surround you with love and comfort during these difficult times. Abide in him as he abides in you. Draw your strength from him and never forget the love he showers you with. This is not the end. The Lord is not slack concerning his promises. Cherish the love and memories that not even time can erase. You will see him again. Find peace in Gods promises.
You are all in my prayers.
Sincerely,
