My condolences to the family. Robert was a childhood friend in Woods Cross. We grew up in the same South Bountiful Ward and spent quite a bit of time in each others' homes. We both helped our Dads and drove tractors over the highways. Robert was in our prayers constantly after he fell off the tractor. Best wishes and God bless.

My condolences to the family of Robert. I grew up in Woods Cross and our family interacted with the Ruflin family often. He was best friends to this day with my brother Gordon. I will always remember him as a small skinny boy but a very kind, gentle boy as well. May you feel of the comfort of our Savior's love at this time and as the years go by.
