Robert was truly amazing; he accomplished so much and cascaded his love for people by teaching. I was honored to have him as my brother-in-law. My son Craig, really looked up to his Uncle Rob. He would talk about regularly to friends expressing how many cool things he knew. Rob taught Craig about helicopters. Rob taught me a few things also, such as making sure my barbeque grill was safe after it went on fire. What I loved most about Rob was he made my brother Christopher so happy.

Robert taught me a lot. Since the 3rd grade when I met him. He taught me how to love, how to fight for what I want, how to live, and how to be a better person. Robert had such an impact on my life at such a young age. There are so many lessons and memories. Live life to the fullest. Learn to let go, trust God in your progress of life, and never forget the people who made an impact on your life. Robert was a hero, he was a great husband (Christopher my heart hurts for you, a great son (Robert SR and Arlene- you guys raised an amazing man), a great friend, and an amazing American. He did so much for our country and he did it with pride. Distance might of kept us apart but Robert you will always be my first best friend, and the first to make me feel love with your loving Ora!! Heaven gained an angel yesterday and we all gained a guardian angel. Life will never be the same without you.

It saddens me so to see The passing of such a wonderful man and my heart goes out to his family and all loved ones, especially my Godson & Nephew, Christopher. He lost his beloved, most wonderful friend & husband. He took such wonderful care of Rob! We are so very proud of him. And viseversa too! They were perfect together! I was so happy for them. Always laughing & yes Rob became my nephew the moment I met him, I fell in love with him too! Who couldn´t! He has a most Endearing Sweetness about him along with his Soft Spoken Words! He always chose his words carefully! Always thankful for anything you did for him. A USA Veteran, Fireman and EMT, a true Hero & Gentleman! He saved many live & now, will be an angel watching over all those whom he loves 24/7! I bet he will somehow continue saving lives from Heaven above! He always wanted to get involved helping those in need! He was so ever so charming! Told me I never missed a Holiday or any Special Day! These words made me smile to see his appreciation! Now it was a while back when we shared a glass of wine together but that was a great day! The last Christmas party with family he was there! he taught me so many things, his Hobbies and how he built a hide away for his cat when the need to do his business! A clean organized man! He was Always smiling except in most pictures, he was more serious because I think he was licking the memory in his mind! But I got him to smile! Rob went through so much pain & fighting for his life. I wanted so much to Donate my Bone Marrow but I was too old! When Jesus calls you home, you must go! He will be missed dearly. I will remember him dressed up as Batman and Dude as the Joker. And both of them were in my wedding party, so handsome in his suit. I keep thinking of this poem, He´s just away! Yes indeed ! No Goodbyes. Just a simple See Ya & I will see you sgain!
Loving Prayers for Rob & each one of you! His Family, Loved ones & Dearest Friends! God bless! May our tears turn into happy ones knowing we were blessed to have him in our lives, and the beautiful memories That will never be forgotten! Rob please watch over all of us, be our Angel!
