Heather and Family; Drew and I were so sorry to hear about Rob’s passing. I worked with Rob for many years and will miss his stories and good humour. He was one of the good guys. Unfortunately we won’t be able to make the funeral, but will be thinking of you all.
Dear Heather & family, so very sorry for the loss of your beloved Rob. Rob was the kind of person that from the 1st day you met him, he ensured you would never forget who he was. I think that is a very special & rare gift & Rob certainly had it. I hope you get some strength from the people who love and care about you the most. Look after yourselves & each other
Heather I was very saddened to hear of Rob’s passing I knew Rob thru business for over 30 years and I enjoyed our meetings and phone conversations. Rob was very proud of his family and spoke a lot of his Mexico vacations, I wish you and your family the very best at this difficult time, I wish I could attend Rob’s service but I will be out of the country.
