Mr. Chandler, it's been 9 years today and I've never stopped missing you since. You will forever be a major part of my heart. I am forever grateful for the 25+ years we shared and what I've learned about life along the way. What I've learned from your wisdom carries me today and I'm proud of that I'm proud of me because of you. The relationship we had is not for anyone to understand, but for you and I and we get one another. I treasure those times in real life. Thank you Chan

To The Family,
I am sending my heartfelt condolences to all of you at this time of bereavement. Robert "Dee" was my "Big Brother" growing up around him was so hard to explain; being the oldest of six children I needed that older sibling to assure me of security, wisdom & friendship that was "Dee". I will miss you telling how much I was like my Mom & how proud you were of me. May your seven sons always be proud that their father was a true father & example for them to pursue. I know you are at rest & peace now. You've joined the other family members that have gone on to glory; I know there was a celebration of your life when those pearly gates opened to welcome your soul, spirit into Heaven. RIP Robert

To the Chandler Family,
Robert was a nice brother, who loved his church, family and community. I saw him battle through life, but also saw his strength and because of his strong faith and family, he was always a real good person. He helped me in my life and I am a better person because of his help. May God bless his soul and bless his family.
