I have unfornately just found out about Rob's Passing. I knew him very well and had lost touch after leaving Paul Miller. I am deeply sorrowed over this tragic loss, he was a very giving and generous man. He was a very avid photographer and had several opportunities to go into the field and take photos with him. He will be deeply missed and never forgoten. With regards to his family, I send my Love and prayers.
God Bless.

My sympathies to the family. Rob was a longtime service advisor for me at PMF & his sense of humor was always so welcoming. As a fellow photographer I really enjoyed talking with him about his upcoming shoots & viewing his albums. He had a great talent & I will miss our talks. He is a great loss.

To all of the thoughtful people that left personal messages for my twin brother Rob, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It is nice to know that my brother touched so many people in a positive way. After viewing so many cards and letters that he had saved from family members, friends, PLM Ford customers as well as his photography customers, it has been very gratifying to know that he made a difference is his life. His life was shortened and for why we may never know, but I do know that I miss him and I am grateful that he knew so many people that thought very highly of him. Thanks, Rick
