S
I am sorry to hear the news that I just received from my former neighbor in Platte Brooke. Robb and I were building our houses across the street from each other before our children were born. Ryan and my twins were born around the same time, so we were going through many of the same joys and challenges life offered us. I remember his help when my car slid off of the road in a snow storm and later in life when I saw him in church and offering me to have a seat next to him and his family in church. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. God Bless you Robb.
