Robert L. Tilkey

my deepest sympathy and condolences to the Tilkey family. sincerely Vincent Kramer

I haven´t seen my uncle in quite some time but he was kind of an unforgettable guy. He was one of those big kid types who loved the small things in life like video games. Some of my favorite memories of him were when we used to play Mario 64 when it first came out. I used to get so into beating that game but when it started getting to frustrating I would give up. When I did, he would pick up where I left off and get really far. When I got home from school I seen how far he got and I would pick up where he left off. We did that till the game was almost finished. We couldn´t catch the penguin going down the slide. It was that one level nobody could beat. But we almost beat it a couple times and we used to get so amped up when we almost won. He was dedicated when he wanted to be. He was a big kid so that´s why I think we got along so well. He was a good dude and he will go down in history as one of the best dudes I´ve ever known. We had a lot of smiles and laughs. That´s what I´m going to remember about him.
