My heart goes out to his family, Robbie was always very kind, I met him 3 years ago and quickly became friends. The world lost another of the ever dwindling population of good decent people and I mourn loosing him as a friend. I was shocked me upon hearing of his passing and I cried for the first time in a long time. My sincerest condolences Rob - Posted by: Robert Menard (friend) on: Feb 17, 2018
