So sorry I´m just seeing the obituary today, 12/26. Would loved to have been at Robert´s memorial. He and my late husband John Dunkin were big buddies - John even worked for him a while at Half Fast PA. Robert and Darlene were fun people to be around and their love for each other was very apparent. I share great memories of those two!!
