Last night I was remembering the various times with my cuz Rabbi.
-My grandma would fuss about his nickname Rabbi. Saying hes not a Rabbi, then call him to do something her calling him Rabbi m
-I would see him at Mt. Peace cleaning off the various family headstones.
- Picking on him because on that side of my family it seemed that everyone was named Robert. For many years I didnt know his name was Robert, but I shouldve guessed it.
-He was fussing at me because I let Loggie give my twins their first haircut, so he gave them their second haircut in his barbershop in his basement.
-We talked bout my great grandparents.
-He was so proud of the honor the Barberton gave him and invited me, but with the excitement forgot to tell me the date and time.
-We also talked a lot about how GREAT GOD IS and what HES done for us.

To the Family of my best friend. Our condolences are with you in this time of sorrow. Robert (Rabbit) and I became very close friends almost 45 years ago. We developed the kind of friendship that was worth it's weight in Gold. We both enjoyed all types of sports and when Rabbit found out about table Tennis, he and I really had some long evenings and sometimes endless games.
I've know his wife's family forever as I was their paperboy years ago. The type of person his loving wife is should be an example to all those who know how to care for a sick person. Janet, may God continue to bless you and your family. I will always cherish our friendship and great memories. Rest in Peace my Brother!

Deeply saddened at this news of Rabbits passing. Sending my sincere condolences to his family and friends. He was a special person to know. He was always smiling and always had a good, positive word for everyone. It was a true blessing to be classmate of his. This world needs more boys and men like Rabbit always was.
