Robert, I miss you more than words can really express. There is this emptiness inside my mind and heart that I cannot seem to fill since you left us. I remember all the good times and the not so great ones we used to have. I think about our childhood games (remember Ratica?), the books we devoured together, and the silly squabbles we occasionally got into with each other: I think of these memories a great deal, and sometimes they make me laugh and cry. I love you, Robert... my Irish twin.

Miss you always, your big sister Helen

It was once said that if the army and the Navy ever look on heavens scene, they will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines. Rest easy, Devl Dog.

My sincerest condolences go out to Gift´s family. I served in the Marine Corps with him and deployed overseas with him in 1987 and 1989. He was one of a kind. #Salute
