A close friend who I still greatly miss. One of the best things that happened to me since I moved to Blythe more than 20 years ago was getting to know the Crain family.

Oh my dear friend, it seems just like yesterday we were in junior high throwing those parties at your house, complete with scavenger hunts, costumes at halloween and dances with our closest friends. Even though time and life sometimes separates us, leading us in our own paths we still have all the wonderful memories of you and your kind heart and gentle spirit. You touched more people lives than you ever could have even imagined. RIP Robert, I know I will see you again. Cheryl and Kevin I am so sorry for your loss. Robin Bowers

Blythe has lost a "Gem" of a treasure, when we lost Mr. Robert Crain.
Too many accomplishments to mention, too many lives he touched. A true Friend.

Robert was a great friend. I have known him since he as 17. We went to PV college together, took Computer Science and Accounting. Later down the road we went into business together. I will miss the days of cruising around and solving business problem or perhaps the problems in our country, etc. I never met a person that had such a pronounced impact on peoples lives. Always there to help them out in what ever they needed. You will be greatly missed. RIP Brother.

I'm still in a bit of denial that this has happened. I expect him to text me to meet him down at Starbucks, but I'm sure by now he's found one in heaven with the greatest view imaginable! RIP Brother. Save me a seat at your table!

I knew Mr. Crain, only in a business sense, he was always very kind and cheerful, his heart may have been heavy at times, you never saw it.. He is now in the best home, he will ever have.. (God's kingdom)
