Robert was a gentle giant. I’ll miss his weekly updates on guns or canons or whatever else shenanigans he was involved with. He will be thoroughly missed around parkwood. Good friend and faithful brother. Overalls and stories for days. They don’t make many men like these anymore. See you in a little while Robert. -Brian Smith
From the time that I met Robert till the Lord took him home I saw a constant and consistent spiritual growth in his life. He was and always will be my friend and brother, I will miss his genuine smile, his friendly conversations, and his big heart for others. He will be sorely missed around Parkwood and we’ll all anticipate the day we’ll be reunited in glory! So long Robert, we’ll see you in the morning!
We’ll miss you, Robert! Thank you for your smile and your kindness to all. You’re the only person I’ve met who worked in high rise buildings. I enjoyed our talks about that. You were such a blessing to all at Parkwood. I’ll see you again!
