To the second best man watching me from overhead.
The 50 years, six months, eleven days you spent your life being my dad were moments I could never think to want to wish away. I can still hear you telling Thea and Andy with a snicker "all going my way can join my class, all going the other way can kiss..... and before you could say another word mother's voice would ring out "ROOOOOB".
In your life, you gave me so much when everyone else seemed too busy and, at the end of yours, I gave all I could just to keep you one more day. The love we shared thru unspoken words were immense. You taught me how to parallel park, how to change the oil in my 66 mustang. You always said it was important I learn these things just in case I found myself alone. Next came the lesson in changing breaks. Boy were you thrilled when I called you from Pittsburgh telling you I had just changed the breaks in my car. You asked who helped me? I said "you, I did it all by myself". Man, you were so proud and I thank you for those times.
You were a gentle giant larger than life in my eyes and the lives of my children. There was never a dull moment being around you. You knew when our lives were crumbling and managed to divert our situations with adventures. Thank you for your compassion. During the simple times as you called them, you made life exciting by roasting hotdogs or cooking hamburgers on "Robby's Grill". The kids and I often reminisce with much laughter about paddling around compass lake or canoeing by Browns Crossroads with gramps leading the pack. Creating "stuff" from "stuff" was where you shined the most brightly. Boy did you and I wear out Dean Church with our many trips to Phillips Salvage yard always returning with our treasures. Thank you for so many laughs and deep conversations while making my wheel barrels.
The one major lesson you taught me in life I want to thank you for. We were talking about people who act so unlovely and hold grudges. I asked you how do you find it in yourself to be kind to them? You looked at me and said "Deb, we all make mistakes, except me (LOL) but everybody has love someone inside. You just have to look for it and everything else will fade away." I thank you for that because it changed me for the better and has protected me in life from getting hurt.
This past weekend as I leaned down and gently kissed your cheek while saying "I love you" you unexpectedly opened your eyes winked at me and mouthed bye bye. I want you to know I heard you but my tears kept me from speaking. Little did I know that would be the last time you had your eyes open.
Our prayers were answered Rob, you passed in your sleep and yes, God is good and so are you.
I love you,
Deb

Memories are one of God’s most precious gifts to us; and there are so many that come to mind when I think of Rob. He was probably one of the most interesting people I have ever met, with an incredible memory with explicit detail! It was amazing to hear him talk, especially about things of interest to him. He was like a history book.
One of my fondest memoires of him was riding on the buckboard, and hearing Dabney barking ferociously, knowing that she would get to ride too. One of the funniest stories ever, was the one when he and Don took a ride and Rob came back with a little less clothing on than when he left.
I loved the summer days at the lake enjoying the water and a picnic with wonderful conversation and so much laughter. I will forever miss that wonderful laugh, bigger than life itself, and that mischievous smile with a twinkle in his eyes as he looked at you over the top rim of his glasses.
He was somewhat of a simple man, yet his mind was always whirling with a new trinket or “toy”, as he would call it. He really enjoyed his life and it was evident in his easy going lifestyle and his unconditional joy. I remember his prayers before every meal, always remembering to give thanks—simple yet profound with sincerity of heart and love for his Savior.
It did not take long to see the generosity in his heart; and underneath that bold and a little less that “soft—spoken” exterior, was a tender heart. He seemed to me to always put others before himself. He was indeed a gentle giant. I loved his heart and will forever miss him greatly. Each one of us had a special, and very unique relationship with Rob, and each one of us experienced the loving mark he made in each of our lives that only he could make.
