I used to work with Robert and carpooled with him to Borger in 1980. Seen him in his store in 2013. One helluva nice guy.

So sorry to hear about Robert, it has been many years since I last saw him, but he was roping at that time. An outstanding horseman and very gifted with making handmade bits and spurs. My love and prayers to Marge and Leo.

Very sorry to hear of Roberts passing. I have several pieces he done for me and I will continue to treasure them and wear them. Prayers to the family may God wrap you all in his arms now and for the days ahead.

Sympathy to all the family. Robert was a friend who would help you anytime you needed help with roping skills. He loved life to the fullest. Lots of fun to be around and will be missed.

I was a 1964 DHS Graduate with Robert. We went to school together for many years. He was a sweet person. May the Lord comfort you during this difficult time.
