My dear and sweet cousin. We grew up together and I always teased you by saying I was a month older than you and Ricky lol.
I miss you so much and I'm sorry to hear of your passing. May you receive the peace you so desperately strived for in life.

Rob was one of the kindest men I’ve ever met. His heart was made of gold and he was always willing to help anyone in need. As his sister in law, married to his identical twin, he has been a HUGE part of my life. I will miss his smile and laughter and all the times we spent together as a family
