I worked with Robert for over 10 years and got to know him pretty well. He always had a nice christian word to say about every situation(good or bad). He wasn't afraid to share God's goodness to everyone around him. He was always kind, polite, gentle heart and certainly one of God's warriors. We are going to miss him but know he is in a better place. I look forward to the day I see him in heaven and he has that big smile on his face and want to show me around our mansions.

My condolences to Robert's family and my joy that he is now with his Lord and no longer suffering in this world. I met Robert several years ago when he and I joined as founding members of the Patient and Family Advisory Council in the Cancer Services of Riverside Hospital. As a fellow cancer patient and Christ follower, Robert and I quickly became friends, drawn together by our love for our Lord and a desire to serve others. I loved his compassion, humor, and sensitivity to the needs of the other members of the council and his wise insights into ways of developing a cancer center that would meet the needs of those who also were walking this jouney that no one wants to be on. The Bing Cancer Center was finally opened and our dream came true. It looks beautiful, Robert! Many will be served well there. I am so glad our paths got to cross here on earth and I look forward to seeing you in heaven.
