Uncle Rob will be greatly missed. I have the picture hanging on my wall at work that I took of him and mom together at The Legacy (I took her to visit him on May 18) never knowing that would be the last time they saw one another down here on this earth. They chatted like two long lost friends. It was such a wonderful visit. She went on to be with the Lord on July 11. I'm sure when he walked through the Gates of Heaven, she was right there to greet him! Love, Debbie (Farmer) Spencer
