robert....april 3rd. please be there with us and make sure mare is there too...
March 16, 2009
Hi Robert, I am sitting here thinking of how grateful i am to you. I am so glad we were able to have lunch together. And I am grateful for our few minutes of privacy when mary left the table. I look back on that lunch in Millbrae. Relive it. I had already decided that any person who could make mary smile and light up the way she would when she thought of you, was ok in my book. But after that lunch, i felt a strong POSITIVE feeling about you. I knew you loved her. It felt real to me. I knew your goals. I knew you were a good soul. I knew you were sincere and i knew you would protect her. I stopped worrying after that lunch. It felt so good to not worry. Still hard to wrap my mind around the loss of you and mary. Please continue to protect her.
March 8, 2009
Robert... you know my tears. It seems that just the right song, the right smell, the right word or look or cloud or the taste of something on the tongue... and there you are.
This morning it was a certain song that made us weep. It reminded me so much of you and not just you but your relationship with your father. Why must it hurt so much?
You really were becoming quite the person... just like your Mom and Dad wanted - someone who was completely different but also held in your very fiber their love and lessons...
I think often these days of Pam Brown's haunting words.
"For every person who has ever lived there has come, at last, a spring he will never see. Glory then in the springs that are yours."
It sure seemed like you were IN joy. In love. In LIFE. I cannot find the good in your passing. None at all. Except that you now walk down my hallway and look at me as I sleep or type or share a meal with my wife. I would trade that 'knowing and seeing' for you to be with your family and your true love. Of course I would!
Just as Georgia O'Keefe once said, "I decided that if I could paint that flower in a huge scale, you could not ignore its beauty.", I would substitute the flower for your life. So Eve and I are in Reno now, away from the green and refreshing moisture of our home in San Jose... but you go with us. Always you go with us. And someday we shall go with you.
We love you, now more than ever.
We miss you, now more than ever.
It hurts like hell.

Dear Robert, Here comes Xmas and your birthday. I am thinking about you and mary all the time....
November 11, 2008
Hey Robert. i am thinking about you and mary today. how happy mary was to be going to raging waters with you that day. Sometimes, she would smile an odd little quiet smile and i knew she was thinking about you. It was the smile of LOVE. And the way you would look at her was familiar to me. You looked at her with love in your eyes. I keep going back thru pictures that Other Adrienne took the last year of your lives and i see love. The two of you were so obviously meant to be together and that brings me comfort. thank you robert for making my daughter happy.

Hey Robert!
Just wanted to stop by and say hello! It seems like just yesterday that I got the news...yet it wasnt yesterday and that's hard to think about. I hope you and Mary are doing well. I was watching home videos a while back and there was a part with you in it. It was hard to handle, but I saw how happy you were, and I know you still are now. We were all playing in the kiddie pool at my old house in Salida, and you were acting goofy and saying you were Michael Jackson and making crazy faces. It was really funny. I got a bit teary eyed, but the laughter you caused overcame those tears and it was good to remember you, though youre never forgotten. Maybe someday we can catch up on all the years we'll miss out on. I'd like that. But for now, keep doin what you do and keep watching over your family. They love and miss you. I do. We all do. Seeya around big guy!
September 13, 2008
hey robert, i felt you and mary tonight. Still together and i am so glad. Love and kisses.

September 11, 2008
I haven't seen my dear cousins or had contact with any of them since my Grandpa Hayden Blaylock died, maybe 12 years ago. Hadn't seen Kathleen since Micheal's wedding. Out of curiosity , I searched the web for "Lois Blaylock" , since I'm now living in San Jose and missing family... I thought that some of my long lost cousins might still be around here. I found the most touching memorial about the tragic loss of such a sweet soul, and I thought as I read and cried for this poor family, "boy do I know what you are going thru... it's heart-breaking.... hmm...where's Blaylock?" as I scrolled down my question was answered , when I saw Robert's face... I knew he was mine to mourn also... I saw my Grampa's brother Joe shining in him.
Thru' my tears I read on... he graduated from Oakgrove HS... what? I just couldn't believe it- I have two teenagers that just started THERE this year!!! It's a small world I guess... amazing that our lives are innertwined in this way. I know you have a huge family to lean on but, I'm here to offer up one more shoulder to lean on.We lost my husband's only brother, in a tragic accident in July 2003. He was 21 and such a great kid and in his 3rd year of college. Just last year the dark cloud of sorrow lifted and we can finally talk and laugh about him without crying or going crazy. The loss is always there, it never feels fair but, in time you find ways to deal with it. Kathleen, you and your family have always held a special place in my heart and I'd love to see you again. Love and prayers from your cousin, Jill

Hello Robert!
Again our busy lives are drawn to the memories of who you were to us. Now you are in the most peaceful place - filled with love and there surely must be creative outlets and venues of expression that you surely do love!
No Question - your absence hurts and stings and aches in ways we cannot express without tears and weeping.
Please help us understand that you are with family that have been together with us for eternity.
Please help us understand that you are happy, in full love and peace, and that you are with us always.
Please help us understand that time guarantees our being together again and again.
Robert - your tenderness and what you meant to us while among us brings us joy, laughter and a connection we thank God for everyday. But it also hurts. So very much, so very often.
Please let us know you are there. Please help us feel your hugs. We know you do.
We love you - your spirit - what you were to us as a young boy and as you grew older, your tender kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity - we miss you. How could we not. You literally became the son of hundreds. A son like no other.
A legacy of love.
Again and again - we love you and miss you and think of you and what you did to us in our journey together. Our tears sometimes come from joy and laughter and end up bitter. We cry for ourselves Robert.
After all, surely you must know, life with you was life's sweet nectar. Life without you in our daily lives is so different - so jarringly different and we hate that.
Hate. Can you believe it? You are with all knowledge and understanding now - and that brings to you a peace we all need. Oh if we could just hug you and kiss you and laugh at your silly way - and be touched again and again with your love.
Love Always,
Paris & Eve

December 31, 2007
robert, just made it thru another of many rough times ahead without you or mary on these special days. Yesterday was one of the worst 24 hours yet. I thought this was supposed to get easier?
Paris & Eve Saizan
December 30, 2007
What is it like to light up a world when you are born? A bright shining face? A spirit of love and giving? Finding one's place among others and then to honor them with love, patience, understanding and quiet complete acceptance? You brought it all my friend.
What makes a remarkable human being? Love? Compassion? Empathy? Patience? Well, you have them all my dear friend.
What makes a dear friend like you? A friend to all, one who derives joy and then shares it right back manyfold. That's you my dear friend.
So how can a person such as you be gone from this world of ours? And how are we to live our lives here and go on without your loving light? Well, you are here every moment - we know you would be if you could be - and you are. But we cannot go on and hold you, hug you, touch you, see your familiar smile and your reassuring presence.
You do not suffer but know that peace that excels all thought from having all the answers now. We must wait - so until then, we suffer from your physical absence. Oh how we crave you back with us!
Happy Birthday today. We remember your course among us with fondness, joy and deep longing. Like the trajectory of a shooting star - from our perspective. From yours, we have no doubt you have only just begun. Please accept our love for you.
Today you live in our memories. Tomorrow we shall be together again.

The most wonderful thing happened twenty-two years ago, Robert: you entered this world and filled my life with joy. I had such a good time playing Teen-Age Mutant Ninja Turtles, hiking in Yosemite, and just hanging out with you. You are my happy boy. I love you more than the sun, and the moon, and the stars.
Happy Birthday,

A thief in the night has stolen all my dreams.
The once happy hours are now a sad reverie.
If only time and its sadness be reversed
We'd go on like we have rehearsed
Songs of our love we sing every verse.
The harsh light of dawn reveals an empty room.
A table for one, the blues is my song.
If you come back to me
How sweet life will be
A new song of joy is what we'll sing.

October 19, 2007
Hi Robert, i was just sitting here thinking about you...and how when you werent around, mary would sometimes smile...i would ask her what she was thinking of and she would tell me about something you said or did. Anybody who could make Mary smile like that had won my heart. You made my daughter happy. Thank you.

Mr. Conway,
I'm so sorry for your loss. I still remember reading the story last summer in the Mercury News and crying because it was so sad and touching. My brother lost his son this summer in June in a car accident as well so while I can't even begin to imagine the loss you must be feeling as a parent, I know how hard it is for the entire family. May God give you strength to carry on.

Hey Robert, last night at eight o'clock in the evening, I was thinking: At this time a year ago you were still here with us and at eight thirty you weren't. It all happened so suddenly. I’m glad I spoke with you the night before the accident. The last thing you said to me was, “I love you, ma.” Oh, honey, I love you with all my heart and soul and being. I will love you forever and for always.

i was looking through the photo album you've posted and saw an old picture of Robert wearing big red sunglasses with no lenses. when i was that age, i always wore my lens-less glasses everywhere. knowing this about Robert really makes me wish i had talked to him more during the threes classes we had together. when i did talk with him, i was always laughing. he was the reason our group got an a. Robert was quite the entertainer.

We Thought of You Today
We thought of you today,
But that is nothing new
We thought of you yesterday
And will tomorrow, too.
We think of you in silence
And make no outward show.
For what it meant to lose you
Only those who love you know.
Remembering you is easy,
We do it everyday.
It's the heartache of losing you
That will never go away.

Dearest Robert, I regret I did not have enough time with you. I see your face all the time and i think about you and Mary every day. I guess you know that though. I wish I let you drive my Miata that day you and Mary removed the hardtop. I was in a big hurry that day, late for michaels grad pictures and told you no. I so regret that "no". Robert, please take care of Mary and keep an eye on all of us. We still need you~

Dear Robert, how can it be coming up on a year? This has been the hardest year of all our lives. We struggle everyday to understand what happened, and I know we never will. I have started to dream about you almost once a week. The pain of you being gone from our family is too much sometimes for me to comprehend.
We love and miss you.

Hey Robert, today is Father's Day. Dad misses spending it with you. Sweetie, we both miss you every day. It's almost been a year and if anything, we miss you even more. It feels like you've been gone long enough, now it's time to come home.
Sometimes on my way to work in the morning, I tune into an XM station that plays hard, hard rock that sounds like the concerts you used to attend. I crank it up really loud and think of you with a grin on my face and yell, “Good morning, Robert!”
It reminds me of the music you and Jason played in our garage. I remember coming home from work and you would excitedly call, “Mom, mom, mom, come and listen! Jason and I recorded some awesome songs!” You would proudly play the recordings for me, grinning from ear to ear. I loved the times when you treated me to loud, ear-drum-popping, energetic solo concerts in the garage.
Our garage is so very quiet now. No guitars and drums. No loud music to greet me as I pull into the driveway. No happy, grinning boy to give me a quick hug between songs.
I know you are still making music. Someday you will give me another joyful concert with all your new tunes. Rock on, Robert, I love you.

A few days ago a boy from my high school died in a tragic accident, and i couldn't help but think of you Robert. I know that you and Derek are having a blast where ever you are. You two are so alike and it helps me to think that you now have a friend there with you. I love you so much Robert, it hurts me so much that I can't physically tell you anymore. I hope to see you again one day.

I am Robert's grandmother, and I have wanted to say something that would tell the world how much I miss Robert. When I read the entry signed "A friend Who cares deeply', I felt that he or she said exactly what I have wanted to say. Thank you so much for putting it into words for all of us to read. I also wish for another chance so that we could make this never happen. . Robert was so dear to all of us, and we miss him so very much. We are never going to forget him. The happy, smart, likable wonderful young man leaves a vacancy at our table that will never be filled. Thank you for your words.

A friend Who Cares deeply
February 13, 2007
It's crazy how people's lives just keep going on as though nothing has happened. It's a requirement, of course, but the pain still stays for those of us affected by the death of someone we love so much. The memories are still there; the sound of his voice, his smell, an image or a song that makes us think he's right there next to us. But when we turn to look, he isn't really there. The sadness we feel when we want so badly for him to be there is immense. It is just not to be. Sometimes it's hard to face the facts. The privilege of having him with us at all was a gift. The gift was a wonderful gift, which is why losing that gift we called Robert, is incomprehensible. The pain of being without a person for which we cared so deeply seems to become all consuming at times. Couldn't we just have one more chance?

i woke up really early this morning and couldnt go back to sleep. i kept thinking about you and mary and how much i missed both of you. you were the funniest, grossest and coolest guy i have ever met and probably will ever meet. i miss picking up my phone and hearing you yell "adrienne adrienne ADRIENNE" just to follow it with something completely random. i miss knocks at my door late at night to hang out and talk until 4 in the morning. i miss how you really didnt have to do anything at all and you could have me laughing hysterically. ill keep looking at your pictures and remembering all the good times we had, i just wanted to finally write something in here to tell you that you really meant a lot to me and im thinking of you all the time.
