Col Roberson is a great man who stood by me in Iraq as we dealt with Iraqi police corruption and our own entrenched bureaucracy. He is a man of integrity and moral courage. His loss was a punch in the gut to those who served under his command. My prayers are with his family. Semper Fidelis LtCol Jeff Nadeau (retired)

One of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of knowing. I will remember what you told me Rob.

I was so sad to hear about the death of Robby. He went to Lyman HS I went to Bishop Moore in Orlando. We both swam. He was one year ahead of me and went to the Marine Miliotary Academy before the Naval Academy, I did the exact same thing. We met often at Capt Scarboro's USNA meetings in Daytona and later he and I were in 34th Company at USNA. He helped me a bunch getting into USNA and doing well while I was there. He has left our world too soon and I am sure he is now in Heaven where there are no troubles. Semper Fidelis, Dutch Bertholf
