I’m so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of taking care of him at Dialysis. And he was one of the kindness giving good hearted man that I’ve ever know. He would do anything for anyone. And always wanted to know if “your ok ass well”. He is already greatly missed my patients and the staff that works with him and a daily basis. Your in my thoughts and payers.
I am very sorry and very sad for Bob’s way to early demise.
Bob and I started Right Way Excavating in 1999, and though our business relationship did not last long, I still considered Bob a good friend. I worked with Bob for several years at Corna-Kokosing and he allowed me the opportunity to learn the management aspects of site construction.
Bob was the BEST trackhoe operator I have ever been around and one of the best dozer operators. Bob was a GREAT all around operator and I have been in this business for 40 years.
I still run into people that knew Bob and we all still fondly remember his greeting for everybody, no matter their age, of ” HEY SON”.
I wish the best for the Oliver family and I am proud and happy to have known Bob and been his friend.
To the family of Robert, you have my condolences in your loss. When Lazarus died, Jesus told his disciples that he was going to awaken him (John 11:11). Jesus knew that death is a deep sleep state in which the dead are waiting for the promised resurrection (Acts 24:15). May you have faith in God’s promise that Robert will live again!
