I was so surprised and saddened to hear of Rob's passing. Remembering all the times he and Jordan and Peter played together. Especially grade 8 graduation, so handsome in their tuxedoes. I hope that you Janet and Rob senior and Peter will find many good memories to help ease your pain at this time and know that Robbie is with g-d now and at peace. He was such a kind and gentle soul and I know he will surely be missed by all who knew him. May he rest in peace. Thinking of you all.

My deepest sympathies and sincere condolences to you and your family. I am sorry for your loss and our thoughts are with you.

~ James O'Liari

"I expect to pass through life but once.If therefore,there be any kindness I can show,or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now , and not defer or neglect it ,as I shall not pass this way again" I don't know if Rob realized this but this is how he lived, he was a kind, caring person, and showed kindness to all. In reading all the comments it shows how much he was loved by all and how many lives he touched. I knew Rob from work, he was so funny and always made me laugh or smile. I can't express the loss our work family feels and how our lives will forever be changed. I, we are so blessed to have been able to know Rob and share our days, our lives with him. I can not imagine the pain and loss you are feeling but please find some comfort in knowing that your son was loved by so many he was truly one of a kind. My deepest sympathy

Rob had a wonderful personality and caring heart that will be deeply missed.

Words cannot express all our thoughts and memories of Rob and what they mean to Jan and I. First to our son Peter and Courtney for showing us strength in this most difficult time. Thanks to both of you we love you very much. All of Rob's countless friends which I will not name for fear of missing anyone except to mention his best friend of over 30 years, Brian Newton, thank you Brian and Colleen you both meant so much to Rob and you cannot put any value on the deepest of friendships for so many years. We were blessed to have two fine sons in Rob and Pete and you will always be in our hearts forever.
