many years. He also began a part time passion as a certified scuba diving instructor where he trained

over 100 people to dive safely. Robert traveled more miles than we will ever know on his bike, which he

loved so much. He loved to keep in shape and also loved running, The Running Club, exercising in the

gym, listening to music and reading! Throughout all this time he continued to enjoy skiing in the

mountains and the natural beauty that surrounded him. In his younger years he enjoyed hunting and

fishing. He was also a Tae Kwon Do enthusiast. He was so health conscious before it was even popular.

Robert made his move from Colorado to Texas and the rest is history for many of you. You all have

become friends and even family to him through the years as he found and grew to love his Northwest

Fellowship Church and the wonderful Men's Ministry group. So as you know the priority in Robert's life

was his relationship with the Lord. He was so proud of being a member and felt it totally changed his

life. He was prepared to go to Heaven and live with the Lord. He enjoyed the companionship,

camaraderie caring attitudes while sharing stories about his beliefs and hearing about others as well. He

is at peace and is in his eternal home with his Lord and Savior.
