RIP Rob, i have very fond memories of Robert, he was one of the first patients i had when i started working in dialysis. He always liked to pick on me and give me a hard time and i did him as well and we would laugh and just have fun. I really did miss his sweet,humorous ways when him and his wife sweet Cindy moved back to Louisiana. I was able to still keep in touch with them. I was fortunate enough to get to talk to him on the phone just a few wks ago and of course we joked and cut up as always. I will always remember precious Rob. I send lots of love and prayers to his family that during the days ahead they find comfort.
