I grew up in the house next to him and literally married his son, the boy next door. I have known him and his family since I was 8 years old. I was saddened when last i saw him to realize he didn't remember alot of things from the past but when he asked how I knew him and I mentioned 26th Street, he became very animated and remarked he had just been driven through the 'old neighborhood'. I was glad to see that those life long memories had not left him completely. Me and my son, his namesake Robert, hope he is at peace and looking down upon us all with the memories just flooding him with smiles.
