Rest In Peace sweet friend. Time and life always take us different directions but you were one of the good ones, I believe with our battles we have more empathy, love and compassion for our fellow man because we know what its like to be in their shoes. Rest easy Rob, see you again. Lisa, Jesse and Jeremiah Im thankful for the time you had together.. I will always remember his smiles and warmth and humor. God Bless, and GodSpeed Rob
