My thoughts and condolences to you, Andrea and the family. I have many happy memories of Boxing Day dinners and bonfire celebrations with you and Rob and am so sorry to hear of your loss.

My family has known Robin and Andrea for over 50 years. Both were great friend's of my parents, Al & Joanne Smalley. I grew up surrounded by the Hammond's, Bhamjee's, Watson's and Rowe's. It was always a great time when they all got together. Robin was a true Gentleman and gave the best hugs. He will be greeted with one of my dad's Caesar's, Dr. B, Gordon and a big hug from my mom and a bear hug from Matt. Robin you will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Andrea and her family.
