Running around camp to "burn" energy with the camp staff. Watching you talk to a Camp-A-Little about why we don't run away from our counselors at camp. Talking to you at the camp nurses office about why you wanted to become a Counselor Aide, and being so proud of you when you said "because I know what we can and can't do at camp, and I think I can help the campers to understand the rules". Watching you help a camper in the pool learn to float, and how patient you were with them. Knowing you were running errands around camp, and also knowing we didn't have to worry about you staying focused on your job. You were a good man, with a good heart, and I am glad to have known you.

Hey Robert! I came across a photo of you while going through some "camp stuff". There you were with your big grin, smiling out at the world. I just wanted to let you know you are missed, and that you made a difference in my life. Thank you for not giving up on me :)

I know this is a difficult month for you and have thinking about you a lot. I still hold in my mind the first day I held him in my arms. He was such a happy guy and you did a terrific job giving him the best life ever!
