Rob,I love you with all my heart and soul! Today is May 25th 2017, and I just found out you, and Nancy were gone...I have been looking for you since I came back home from Arizona....god I love you...you were my everything....I've been hoping I would run into you...I went by your house, and it was all overgrown, and there was a dumpster in your driveway. I thought that you must have moved away. I typed your name into google and that is how I found out you were gone...I have been crying ever since. Please wait for me Rob...I will always love you...Annie
