I lived next door to Robert for many years and he was always so pleasant and kind to me and my daughter. It was with a smile on his face that he always said "Hello," held the door and inquired about our day. I truly hope he has found peace.

We will miss Robert! I hope and pray that at last he has found health and rest that lasts forever.

For our family and friends,
Don't be caught up in worry
Never think to blame yourself
For he's gone to God who is over all
Seeking the one true source of help
Keep praying for the strength to hold onto the good until the dark times start to fade. Love you all.

I salute you Bob!
The love of American, and the flag is my passion too.
I've had an American flag hanging out on my balcony since Memorial Day in thanks to all our men and women who have preserved our freedoms throughout the years, and those who currently are serving, and will serve.
The last time I saw Bob was when I said 'hello' to him from my 3rd floor balcony, when he was near one of his cars, just a couple weeks before learning of his death.
He yelled up with such vigor and simply said, "I like your flag."
Those few words were enough to bring such joy to my heart as I am very patriotic.
Later I learned that he served our country and it brought tears to my eyes as I remembered how he commented on the flag.
I am always thankful to those who gave their lives to serve in our military and who have kept my freedoms secure.
I miss you Bob.
Love and continued prayers for the family and his friends.

Words seem so inadequate at a time like this, still they are all we have. "My deepest sympathy to the family". Unfortunately I am familiar with this kind of shock and grief. But know that Robert touch so many of us in a special way. I will never forget the kindness he showed me. His faith in me helped me at a time when I needed it.
He was a true Godsend. He made a difference in the world. He will be missed.

Dear Doris,
This was truly a shock to me. I am so sorry that you find yourself letting another loved one slip away. You and the kids will be held in my heart and in my prayers. I wish I could hug each of you. love, Aunt Patsy

My deepest sympathy to Robert's family. I worked with Robert for a brief time and he was always a caring person that would lend an ear when a person needed to talk. He was alot of fun and we shared many laughs. I will never forget him. God bless you Robert--I will remember you always. Jane & Joe Valenti.

Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know that are happy. Author Unknown
My deepest sympathies to your family in this time of loss. Bob lived at Markside for many years and we all thought highly of him. He was always pleasant, jovial, nicely dressed and we will miss him and always remember him that way. Our thoughts are with the Tibbits family.
September 17, 2009
If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane,
We would walk all the way to Heaven, to bring you home again
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye
You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why
Our hearts ache in sadness, and secret tears will flow
What is meant to lose you, no one will ever know
Please accept our deepest sympathies.

I am so sad that Bob has passed away. He was such a good person. Bob and Doug were like a comedy team that could always make you laugh even in the worst of times.
He will be missed by so many people.

Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

I will truly miss Bob. He was always able to make me smile, whenever I saw him. He was a truly nice person.
