I remember watching the news when Robert went missing. He looked so much like my son and his story broke my heart. I never knew him--I live far away in Virginia but I have mourned for your loss and Robert's story makes me watch the children around me a little more carefully. God be with you.

My heart goes out to you, Charles, for this loss and I definitely can't even wrap my head around what this has been for you.
After the good news yesterday, I hope you can be at a little bit of peace, knowing justice was served here on Earth for Robert. And when those two meet their judgement day, The Lord will serve Robert justice there as well!
So much Love to you, Sir, for all you have been through.
God Bless you and keep you.

Justice was proven today for you Robert! They proved it just like Danny told them to. Our hearts still brek at the simple sound of your name, or a picture of your beautiful face. No one will ever forget "Our Robert". You brought a community together! Play with the angels sweet boy and watch over your daddy,Mom Afton, Auntie Trish and the rest of your family. We spred the word that "It shouldn't hurt to be a child". Shine bright Robert!

Every since I looked into those beautifull eyes...so young and innocent I have been compelled to follow your story. I am so, so sorry and it breaks my heart that you went through the horror that you did. No child deserves that, you were NOT to blame. Lots of LOVE Robert...you are a sweet little angel who should have only witnessed what "hugs" were.
Prays of continued strength for Robert's Family, until you meet again and can embrace him. He was a beautiful lil Man...he stole a little pc of my heart even though I never had the honor of meeting him.

It's been a year since you we're gone. July 24, 2009 is the worst day ever, I just wish that I can stop what happened last year, I wish I was there to protect you. I will never ever forget this day. I wish you can give me a sign that you are OK, that you made it to heaven, that you are happy and in peace. If not, I pray to God that he will guide you to the light, the light that will take you to heaven. I pray to God that I can be with you in heaven when I die. I wish God will give me a chance to meet you and show my love to you. I really miss you so much, I don't know how to explain it. I love you like I love my own son. I still think about you everyday, I still cannot believe that someone will do terrible things to you, you we're such a sweet and precious little boy. I promise, I will never ever forget about you until I die. One day, we can be together forever in heaven. I love you, Robert.

Happy Birthday, my little angel. Even though we never met, I love you and I miss you. There is not one day, I never think and cry about you. There is something about you that you touched so many people's heart. I cannot believe it is almost a year since you were gone. I pray to God, when my time comes, you are waiting for me with open arms and I cannot wait until I give you a big hug and kisses. I promise I will love and take care of you forever. I will never ever forget about you, until the time I die. I am so sorry if I did not able to help and protect you when the time that you needed us. You are such a precious boy, I always ask myself "why bad things happen to good people?" "Why you left us so soon?" Today is supposed to be your happy day, maybe opening presence and blowing your birthday cake, but you're already gone. I love you and hope to see you someday, in heaven. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Why did this happen to you, such an innocent and precioius child. You were a gift from God and now you are with Him again. He will protect you now in His nurturing embrace and love you unconditionally. I am sad for those who love you and must go on without you. May your beautiful smile give them comfort.

Your classmates must have been so sad to start a new school year without you, Precious Boy. My deepest sympathy to your father, step mother, grandparents, siblings, extended family, friends, and the people of your community. You are truly a child of the world now. We will never let you be forgotten. Because of what happened to you, we will fight to ensure that other children will be spared this injustice by working to correct the way things are done. You are so loved. So many hearts have been broken all over the country. Your memory will never die. The sadness we have all felt here could only be matched by the joy in Heaven when you arrived there.

Dear little Robert,
I never had the pleasure of knowing you, but you found your way into my heart just the same. I searched for you with the 2300+ others, and it just breaks my heart finding out just what really happened to you. I have shed many tears for you sweet one. How anyone could do this to a child, is far beyond my capacity to even think of.
I pray your angel was with you during this time and took all your pain away from you.
You are in heaven now, and all the horror is gone from you. You can give and receive as many hugs as you want now. Jesus will never harm you little one. You can snuggle right up with him and feel safe forever.
God Bless you sweet heart and may you rest in peace now.
The work has started now to bring justice as promised.

Dear Manwill family,
Robert was in all of our prayers since the first day he went missing. Our daughter-in-law and grandchildren helped make the green ribbons and pinned them on all of your shirts. Our hearts ache for Robert and what he had to endure the last days of his life. We can't begin to imagine the pain Charles is experiencing. Robert is in Heaven now and free of pain. May knowing this bring you peace. God bless Robert.

A child born a smile each day for everyone he knew and now how sad the smile is gone and the day is blue. You know god only takes the best so the day you were laid to rest you knew you were blessd through the tears and the pain not knowing who to turn to for the final day but knowing you were in a much better place then this you gave your last smile and laid down to rest with the very best.

Dear Robert,
I am so sorry you had to suffer the way you did. I will never forget the picture of your sweet inocent smile and the thoughts about you always hugging people makes me cry! I would have loved to have known you! A small boy at my apartments "latched" himself to me and was always giving me hugs, always wanted to just spend time with me; (he since has moved) and I have had great regrets I didn't spend more time with him; after hearing/knowing about your tragic end to life, I have made a new vow to always take the time to spend with those precious little souls that may be hurting or need a hug or just someone out there to care about them and spend time with them. I hope that everyone that has come to know you though all this will never forget just how short life is and to keep a closer watch for other precious children out there that may need our help! Robert, I will never forget you! My heart aches for your Father and Afton! I pray that Justice will be truely served for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love,
Nadine, Boise,Id.

A beautiful life, cut short by the hands of one of your children. God bless this family. My condolenses.
