Robert was super friendly to all who were blessed to know him.  He truly cared and gave to those who reciprocated his kindness. He loved to socialize and as a proud veteran, he always had an interesting story to tell about his time stationed in Okinawa.  He loved to travel especially up north to camp or take up the serenity of his favorite fishing hole.  Robert was known for playing his luck with the Lotto and visiting his favorite casinos and in his quiet time, he could be found keeping up with current events reading the newspaper.
