Robert was my brother-in-law for many years. He will always have a place in my heart. He is at peace now, no more pain in any way. My prayers go out to his family and friends who loved him. May we all hold on to the good memories of Robert. He would call me when I was in the hospital to be sure I was ok, that's a good memory.
