Not sure what to say?

I just found out my mom, Lyda Harris, who was Lyda Bañuelos then, went to high school with Robert. They were in the same art class. My mom had sculpted a mermaid and the teacher put it on public display at their school. But it was Robert´s name on the art piece! My mom never made a fuss about it. She is patient like that. He did some beautiful work. RIP

My condolences. But his character lives on in the sculptures he graced us with.

Dad, Its now 10 years since you left us. Missing you every day, and especially this time of year. I know how much you enjoyed Christmas, and you spent your last unconscious in hospital, despite some of your last words wanting me to bring you home for the holidays...I wish I could have❤

Love & Miss you Dad

For You Robert

I miss and love you Dad ??

We think of you and miss you every day.

Love, Steven and Joey

Sorry to learn of Roberts passing. He was always so kind and generous with his time.

I met Robert in the 70's and I have seen quite a bit of his work done in California. He was indeed a gifted man. My prayers are with you Steven. God Bless.

Love,
Aunt Millie
