Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. To just a great guy –
    Robbie, you will be greatly missed. Although I haven’t seen much of you in recent years, just knowing you are not around tears me up. Wishing the family nothing but the best.

  2. Very sad for your family. Rob, you were a good guy. I have lots of fun volleyball memories and couldn’t believe how a white guy could jump so high. My sympathies are with Keely and family.

  3. I was Rob’s basketball coach his senior year at PHS. Rob was the ultimate definition of the quiet leader, letting his actions speak for his play. He led us in practically every category, and was always assigned to defend the best player that our opponent had. I have heard that Rob is an organ donor; whoever gets his heart will have the heart of a champion. To his mom and family, you have my deepest sympathy.
