We are very sorry to hear of Rob´s passing. Always pleasant and a master carpenter. We lived in Randy´s duplex on Godfrey St. just after getting married in 1990 and Rob had redone the whole house. We loved living there. Our condolences to the Moon family.

To the Moon family, I'm feeling sad today to have read about Robbie's passing. At times like this we all think of the good times with fond memories. Growing up together in the neighborhood...the Harnish's, the Valinski's and the Moon's was such fun. There are more neighborhood family's that will think the same. We all loved Robbie and he will be missed deeply. I'm so sorry to all of you.

Fondly,
Deborah Harnish Peters

I always said Robbie was my best friend in high school. From classes and proms to hanging out and going to concerts. He once got me a job roofing with him, and was a skilled carpenter. Robbie was a fun loving, good hearted friend and we will miss him.

Robbie and I started our first band at Eastern Point school. Growing up through West Side we were good friends and we both met the love of our lives in middle school. We had a lot of fun times hanging with Bonnie and Rhonda and the rest of the gang at Eastern Point beach. Robbie was the ringleader & band leader for a short time. We had some crazy times and sometimes found ourselves in hot water.... but Robbie had a way of always coming out clean on the other side. I will miss Robbie's great spirit. "So onward, (my) friend, with courage wide, to find the light on the other side." by Alfred Lord. Our condolences to all of Robbie's family and friends. Jay & Rhonda Dempsey
