Dear Robert, Erin, and the entire Perry Family,
I'm a relatively new friend of Robert's from EB (WW).
We are shocked and saddened by your tragic loss; I've children only slightly older and cannot imagine what this would be like…at a complete loss for what to say.
Of course, I was at a complete loss when I wrote this poem, too; had never lost a mom before...never experienced a hole in my life that size...with that awful impact, and, so...I believe I understand, to some degree, the hole left behind... regardless forewarning...by anyone so loved!
And the grief, it will come...and it will linger... seeming unbearable at times. Then it will diminish, so slowly as to not even be noticeable. Never believe it is unnecessary... should be “shrugged off”.
Grief is most necessary and must be indulged; it can, however, be tempered just a wee bit by the innate knowledge that the depth of your grief is, too, a yardstick of the love you shared...and the fond, positive impact this life had on yours!
And, so I pray this helps some wee bit...to allow... enable…that grief! Know I am definitely keepin' y'all in fond prayers that Christ hold you close in this trying time!
When my mother died, even after a years-long battle with cancer, I was shattered by the loss…inconsolable…she was my mentor! BUT, "If your faith assures you she's in heaven, then what are the tears all about?!?" I hold eternity with God a precious, hard-won, and cherished prize...but... in the interim, the answer lies below...and believe me...I understand the tears often are not nearly as casual as this implies!
SELFISH TEARS
(I eulogize my beloved mother - March, 1989)
Today we cry...must admit they're selfish tears.
You see...our faith assures your journey's done.
But it's not for you we mourn, at all, my dear;
It's for those of us you've left behind...alone!!!
We share your joy...share your happiness at rest,
Your painful fears now for forever stilled.
You've fought the good fight, passed the final test,
But you've left behind a hole that can't be filled!!!
So, until we each rejoin you some someday,
And, while your memory buoys us through those years,
We'll miss you...but continue on our way,
And, from time to time, we'll cry our selfish tears!!!
Ray Hamilton (c) March 19, 1989

Erin, and family, even in death Robert has touched people, as I am reading the posts from those that do not know you. I cannot help but feel such heartache for your loss, the unfairness of it all, the sun will still rise, and the moon set, and it's tragic that life moves on, when all we want is for it to stop and not move. To turn back time. I am wishing your whole family peace as you struggle to understand how to move on. Curt, myself, family and WMF send our heartfelt love.

Erin, Bob, Taylor and Jennifer....As I look and read through the many comments of love and support for you on this site, Facebook, etc., it is very obvious what a fine young man Robbie was and will always be. May you find comfort from the support you have found here. His death was a terrible loss to the family, and will never be understood. Please keep watching for the deer tracks ! He will always be with you.
All our love,
Cindy, Peggy, Warren, Sadie, Selah and

Robert will be deeply missed by everyone who ever spent time with him, whether it be work acquaintances, friends, or family. Robert always knew how to make people smile, laugh, and get along with each other. I learned a thing or two from him about what it means to be a good son and a good brother when I spent time with the Perry's on Christmas Eve. I will always remember Robert as an example of a great person and a loyal friend to all he was close to.
