I'm so sorry to hear of passing of Robert. He was such a nice man. Always smiling and would talk to you when he seen you. My mom and dad were very fond of him. I remember when we lived at Markham, he would always come to visit us quite often. My thoughts and Prayers are with all of you during this time of sorrow. Mildred, I think of you often. Love you,
Barbara and family
