I met Robby square dancing. We shared a birthday, January 23rd, and whenever I would see him, he would tease me about that. Sometimes he even called me on our shared birthday. Richard & I had a lot of fun dancing with him. He will be missed.

my uncle Robert shared so much with us all, he loved family and history. Taught me about my Scottish heritage a love I keep with me heartfelt. I am comforted by the thoughts he is with those that proceeded him and they will be looking down upon us with love and laughter always. He took me on my first ski trip..I was little, i wanted to start at the top of the biggest mountain but they convinced me otherwise. I had a blast that day, even when i fell into a snow rift and thought i got buried he shooshed in and saved me then took me to the lodge for hot cocoa and stories. Every Summer at the WildWood Shore we would all spend summers as a family..going with him and my grandmom E shopping, going to get salt water taffy. He also took me on my First Ever Roller coaster Ride. Me and him sat together and i stood on his shoes to show i was tall enough we kinda cheated a bit i was a tiny bit to small that first time, he held onto me the entire time as the rest watched from the ground. A great man..my Uncle.
