Not sure what to say?

A day doesn't go by that I don't think of him.I wake up in the morning to his art on my bedroom walls. His art is displayed throughout my house. Started with one and I now have 13. I first met him at the Martin Lawrence Gallery in CA and thought he was the neatest guy I had ever met. I saw him again at a gala at the Martin Lawrence Gallery in Vegas where we also met Robert. It always amazed me how he took his time to stop and have a conversation with my husband and I not just a quick hello...

John and Chris, Thank you for sharing that memory. We too have the honor of having one of Robert's pieces in our dining room. Appropriately enough, it is of a rabbit with flowing robes and a golden halo. What a wonderful talent and wit!

Not a day goes by that I don't think of Robert. The walls of my house are covered in his art work. Anytime someone comes to my house I play the game of what does this picture mean. He was so down to earth my husband and I always looked forward to seeing him at the Martin Lawrence Gallery in Las Vegas. He is truly missed.

What a lovely smile Robert had! I´ll always remember it Claudia

Hi, I was looking at some stuff on ancestry this morning, and found this. Bobby was my cousin. My grandfather's youngest brothers son. I just can't believe this sad news. I've been wanting to get in touch with him for years, especially after my dad died in 2019. My name is Kari Deyber, so Bobby was my 2nd cousin. Many summers spent swimming in the pool on Dairy Rd. I will miss all the wonderful memories of him and my other cousins, his brothers and sisters, Robin, Margot and Johnny . Wish we...

We only recently fell in love with Bob and his art while on a trip in Vegas March 2020 just as coronavirus was starting. We purchased 5 of his works that didn't get delivered for months as the world shut down. We also laughed when we realized that Bob was a New Englander and so are we. Growing up in Connecticut and living on Cape Cod since childhood it took a trip to Vegas to meet our neighbor through his art. We were looking forward to meeting him when the virus settled. Our deepest...

Found out about Robert Jr.'s passing from a Martin Lawrence auction catalogue. Had the opportunity to meet Bob at a signing in Schaumburg, Illinois at the gallery. I found him to be a most enjoyable person to talk with and greatly enjoy his play on words style. He told me as we discussed future projects that he does not use people as he did not have a grasp of skin color in doing faces. We will cherish his work that we have collected. Our sincerest condolences to his surviving family on this...

Robert´s art adorns my walls. My deepest condolences to your family.

I am so saddened by your loss. I fell in love with his work when we were in San Francisco and will cherish the pieces I have hanging in our home. I only just found out of his passing.
