Dear Kiepura Family,
We had the great pleasure of knowing your Robert. We met via his work at Coast Volvo in Sarasota. He impressed us as a very bright, very well mannered, very energetic young man with a bright future ahead of him. We had the pleasure of his company several times as a crew person on our race team at Sebring International Raceway. He was excellent as crew and thoroughly enjoyed his visits to the track with us. All mechanics have a confidant with whom they share information about difficult diagnostics on stubborn Volvos. Robert was that confidant for us. The loss has touched our hearts and we will especially be thinking of him this Thanksgiving as he normally attended the race with us over the holiday. This year we will run the race in his honor.
Please accept our deepest sympathies on the loss of your loved one. He was a special person who touched the lives of many.
With love and prayers,
Bill & Tricia Rose
