Robbie you have left a hole in my heart and many more peoples hearts.You were my number one fan and lm so glad that over the years and particularly the last few months l was able to give you all the love and support you needed. We talked a lot about our lives together over the 48 years and marvelled at what we had achieved .Your love for myself and our extended family goes without question. During these talks we touched on many subjects and it gave me the opportunity to thank you for the support you gave me in all my endeavours.you gave me the freedom to be myself ,a rare and special gift for which l will be forever grateful.There are so many wonderful memories we created together l will treasure them forever.Until we meet again rest in peace my darling forever in my heart Esmay

Rob, as I grew to know you more and more over the years I saw a very honest, knowledgeable, and kind man. I remember the times when Gemma (only tiny) and myself would go to the yards when you were drenching thinking we could help, we were properly more of a pain than help but you just let us help even tho I was a townie and knew nothing. You were patient with us and taught us what we needed to so i would of some help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for always being my Farther-n-Law. XOXO

With the passing of my Father this week I find myself thinking about how Grateful I am for the decisions I made and the time I spent just being with him , sometimes he was asleep sometimes awake but always there both of us together. Sometimes only for a quick ten minutes not long but very often was my strategy as he slept a lot of the time . when I asked him had he done everything in life that he had wanted to . Yes was his reply and thinking of that now warms my heart . A person that has done everything in life they wanted to is rear . For anyone that reads this , take time , be with loved ones Because it’s now that he s gone that I find myself comforted by the memories of our conversations we had. Rest now Dad you have earned it
