I don’t know how we ended up meeting. Robert and I met way back prior to 2006 we didn’t date but were early stages of friendship. He told me he had two daughters (never met) and an ex wife. I did see his apartment on Hespler when he mentioned he was moving from there, and that he was meeting someone and interested in pursuing such relationship. We never saw each other again. I remember his recognizable deep voice and wondered why I haven’t been hearing it on radio. I was just randomly looking up his name today when I suddenly found his obit! I am so happy for him that he met a loving person and had another child! I am shocked surprised and just as deeply saddened to see that he had passed away! My Condolences to his family he leaves behind to mourn! He was a good decent person and loved his friendship. ~~~ friend sharilee. - Posted by: Sharilee (Friend) on: Oct 26, 2024

We said farewell to Lori yesterday. Even though you weren't together anymore after being married for 16 years, I thought you should know. It was a sad day for many; for myself because I have lost another good friend. Both your girls were there. It was a sad and difficult day for them as well. But you would be so proud of them, Robert. Jay is playing in a band again; they actually performed at the service yesterday and Jay sang two songs. She has inherited your talent. Kristin is a teacher and loves it. This had been her dream for a long time so it was meant to be. They both have partners and very soon you will become a grandfather for the first time! You asked me to make you a promise to look out for your girls in the event something happened to you and I have fulfilled that promise. I hope that you approve when you lovingly look down upon them as only a father can. Miss you always & forever. - Posted by: Angela (sister) on: Jul 22, 2018
