It is surreal to me that it has been 5 years since we lost you. You were an amazing bright soul that brought so many highlights to myself and our friends. My time in Richmond was brighter because of you.
You will be forever missed Rob.

Hey there little brother.. I know it has taking me a while to write in your guest book but I just didnt want to write I wanted to pick up the phone and call or text you. I miss you everyday but I know that you are in a better place and now with Mom. Both of you have been a blessing to me. My son reminds me of you when you were his age and that makes me miss you more. I would love to hear your voice once more but I still have the last text messages that you sent,and it keeps me grounded, I cant wait to see you again,, you and mom take care and we shall be in one anothers presence again. I love you ROBBIE!

My darling child...it has taken me a while to write in your book. It breaks my heart to even think that you are gone. I am still crushed to know that I won't see you walk through the front door and say "hey ma!" I miss you so much...more than you could imagine. I think of you every day; several times a day. I remember the glad times and happy times we had. Right now my love, I hurt so deeply but I want you to know that I love you now...always have and always will. Each time I feel compelled to do so, I will write in your journal. It has been a year but it feels like it was just yesterday that I got that nightmare of a call.....I love you son...I know you are in a better place...and I miss you sooooo much my child. I'll see you again one day but until then just know that you are always in my heart.
Good times....Good times

Robert I don't think know one in the world will understand how much I miss you. You will always remain a beautiful thought that I hold on to. It's been one year since you left, but it feels a lot longer. You were my best friend my brother my. There were times when we hung out with each other and laugh like we were the only people on this earth. At one point in time we hung out with each other every single day, man o man what I would give to have you back brother. I love you Robert Lee Cox R.I.P.

Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.
Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.
Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you." ~Pueblo Blessing~
