Mandy & Kyra,

I'm sorry to say that I never really got to know Robert, but what I did know of him I liked. He seemed to be a really fun, and happy guy. I know he lived his life to the fullest. Although he wont be here himself, he was able to create a beautiful, and amazing little girl to carry on his love of life, and love for you Mandy. As cliche’ as it is to say but he will always be with you and Kyra. I know that you miss him, I can understand that but I cant begin to understand what your going through by losing him. You know I love with all my heart you might be my cousin but you have always been more like a big sister and I will always be here for you, Kyra, and Kobe. I love you

- Nikki

Mandy and Claudette,

I am at a loss for words right now. I just want you both to know that I love you both and I am so sorry. I also want to tell you both something you probably already know.

Robert was a free bird and his soul has been set free to fly. You will feel him with you during the dark points in your life. Notice the signs because they will be there. You will see him in the laughter on Kyra's face, and when you get to the point that everything seems hopeless, you will feel his hand on your shoulder. Everytime you see a butterfly, he will be there. Pay attention to the signs, because his love will always be around you. I love you both and am here if you need me. Love, Amy
