Dear Lori,
I am deeply sorry to hear about Rob. We are praying for you during this loss. I remember when he would bring Robby to school, and always have a smile on his face and a cheery "good morning!" If you need a close "neighbor" to talk to, I'm here.
Love,
Lori Fote (and family)

Lori,
You were always like a big sister to me when I was growing up. Now I wish I could find the words to give you strength. I was deeply saddened when I heard about your loss. I remember when you first started dating Rob and the two of you took me out for ice cream. Rob offered words of advice and encouragement as I was struggling with the adjustment of starting highschool. I knew he was a special guy for you. My heart goes out to you and to your boys. Love, Michele

Sitting in mass today I realized that Rob was so much to everyone;a husband, a father, a brother, a son, a caregiver and a friend. He touched so many lives in such a short time. His compassion for his family and career was awesome. He is an inspiration to us all. We are here for you always.

Lori, Robbie, & Josh -
Your husband and dad was an incredible man. It was a lot of fun being a class mate of his at Marquette because you knew it would be a lot more fun and interesting with him there. Although he may not walk among us now, he will never be forgotten by his many friends and patients to which he was so devoted.
God Bless you all.

Lori-
I know there are no words to truly comfort you in the this of loss. Like so many of Rob's classmates what I remember most is his love for you and the boys. I don't think a conversation went by without him speaking of the three of you. Know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lori,
We cannot imagine the void you must feel but may you find comfort in knowing that Rob's optimism and love of life have inspired many and that his untimely passing from this life to the next at such a young age will remind us how precious every moment with our loved ones is. May God send special love and blessings to you, Robby and Josh as you struggle to adjust to the emptiness in your hearts.
Love, Jim and Cheryl

Rob was such an important part of our life and we all will miss him so much. We are grateful for all that he has taught us. We have so many fond memories, it is difficult to share them all here. So we will share our stories and try to smile and thank God that we were fortunate to have crossed his path.
For Only A Short Time
By Julie Drajkowski
For only a short time, Rob was a part of your life.
Luckily, you both meet and soon became his wife.
The two greatest gifts you received,
Certainly, Robby & Josh are it, I perceive.
These two boys are now your focus, strength and drive.
Each and every day you’re alive.
What's going on? This wasn't part of the plan.
I guess it's now your task to show those boys how to be a man.
Filling his shoes won't be an easy role,
His early leaving, is starting to take its' toll.
Lori, I will take special care of you now,
Some way, some time, some how.
If I could take away the pain and turn back the clock, I would
But this is not the time to say "I Should".
Why did God take him so fast?
This is the question we will always ask.
Lori, take your daily struggles to heart;
Remembering with God you're never far apart.
So, take comfort in Rob's protection from above.
I truly believe he continues to show everlasting love.
Family, friends and more are here.
Please let us help you and hold you dear.
Please do what you can to be okay,
You know Rob would want it that way.
All our love to you...

Lori:
May you be surrounded by loved ones morning, noon and night ...
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be ever at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall softly on your fields
And until you meet Rob again, May God hold
you in the palm of his hand

Rob was truly a gifted man and a rare friend. Nursing was only one of his special skills. He was quite adept at mounting drapery rods, hanging party decorations, shopping for groceries when I was sick, cheering for my sons at sporting events, taking them to movies, or delivering home remedies. Rob and Lori shared their love with family and friends in the simple moments of life and we will always be eternally grateful. Love, Sue, Andy and Jeremy.

Dear Lori and family:
Please accept my deepest sympathy. I worked with Rob as a member of the transplant team. Rob's great smile, humor, attitude and respect toward patients/staff made on call shifts easier. It was a relief to know he was on duty. He will be missed. My prayers are with you.

Lori and family, My heart goes out to you. I have a poem that I keep at my desk from when my uncle past away. I hope this will bring you peace.
Imagine - stepping onto a shore and finding it heaven
Imagine - taking hold of a hand and finding it God's hand
Imagine - breathing new air and finding it celestial air
Imagine - feeling invigorated and finding it immortality
Imagine - passing from storm and tempest to an unknown calm
imagine - waking and finding it home.
