We are saying good-bye and rest in peace to a wonderful man who loved his life and all the people in it. His genuine affection for people has touched many lives and has created very special friendships.

Rob was a proud 21 year member of Hampton New Life and cherished the friendship of many. Dear to him were his winters in Florida and the company and camaraderie garnered there.
