I knew Robert for 20 years, and he always treated me like family. Robert was probably the nicest man I ever knew. He never had a bad word to say about anyone, and he always laughed, joked, and always had a good outlook on life. If there was a good man to know and look up to, Robert was it. Robert loved two things in life, music and his family. He knew more about Latin Jazz then anyone I've ever known, and he was proud to tell you all about it. I'm honored to say I was a close friend of Robert, and I'm honored to say that he was more of a family then I've ever had. We lost a great man, and it's taken me years to be able to write this, but I miss him and I'll never stop thinking about him.
Love you Robert

I am so very sorry for the loss of your father. I knew him from Walmart. He was a great man, always happy, we used to talk about his music and the band that he was in, a few times I would see him in his Mercedes all dress up walking into Walmart to buy a bottle of Crown Royal. He was always willing to help anyone that came in his path. He will truly be missed, I haven't been able to back to Walmart since his passed away, because ai am expecting to see his smiling face. May God watch over you and know he will be an amazing guardian angel for your family and grandchildren. Will there be some service in the future for him? Will he be buried in the cemetery in Lodi I would love to go pay my final respect to him in person.

My deepest condolences to all of you. I will miss you Robert and our talks at his work. He always asked how my Mom was doing and my family. RIP Robert.
