So sorry that we will not be able to attend. As youall I thought s lot of Robert. We spent a lot of time at the fire dept back in the 70s getting it to a first class dept. If not for Robert the county depts would probably not got to where they are now. I know all of you will miss him greatly, but knowing he is in a better place and no more pain and suffering. God bless you Janice, Charlene and all the family. Love youall

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
