Hello friends and family,

I am so sorry to share that we must postpone Robert´s services once again due to inclement weather. Unfortunately, the church parking lot was not able to be plowed in time for tomorrow´s service, and our priority is keeping everyone safe.

We will reschedule once the weather improves and will provide ample notice when new arrangements are made. Please know that it will be a beautiful service honoring Robert´s life.

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your continued love and support. Your kindness has been such a comfort to me. It truly fills my heart to know how deeply my brother was loved by so many.

With gratitude,
The Poole Family

Lisa and family, expressing my sincere heartfelt memories and sadness for the loss of your brother Robert (Rock). I have such wonderful memories while being in Rock´s presence. Lisa, you and I have been close friends for many years and your family has always been dear to me. Rock would always greet me with a smile and kind words. He was really funny too. I can't believe he's gone. Praying for God to embrace you and your family with comfort during this very difficult time.

Love Chevelle
