I'm sorry to hear of the loss of my friend, and my prayers are extend to his family. I too went to high school with Robert but have lost track of him throughout the years. Sometime back he ran into my parents at Cleveland Clinic and had ask about me. It was good to know that after all these years he still remembered. Go rest now my friend.

Bob, Will be missed dearly by his family & friends. We went to high school together and I sat next to him in some classes. He was a huge Minnesota Vikings fan and we talked sports alot.
He recently came to Norton High School to see a basketball game, because he had seen in the paper that my son and another former classmates son was playing. He was genuinely the nicest guy I have ever known.

We all loved Robbie and he will be sadly missed by all the family. Randy and Kautreenia and Robbie and Eddie all grew up together and loved each other so much.
