loved Robs art and visited him at his studio in awe of his work. After moving into my house in Kingston, I bought House Party 2, a large piece that reminds me of Rob every day.

I hope to complete the purchase and contact those family members responsible.

So very sorry to hear of Rob's passing. He has always been a special delight to me and I had been looking forward to our next meeting.

'See you in my Dreams' God bless you all.

Our sincere sympathy on Robs passing on. A great artist and human being.
