I still wake sure that you, you night owl, are just down the hall in the kitchen, drinking a cup of perfectly made coffee, enjoying a smoke, busy telling the world exactly what you think of it.  Those quiet times, beloved, belong to you. I hear you in the morning silences.

I am very sorry to see that Robert has passed.
I didn't know him well, but he was very kind to me and my children.
I send my love to Patrick and Hunter.
I'm so sorry for your loss.

Sincerely yours,
Jan Bruno Livingston

I am very sad to learn of the passing of my friend Robert.  I had the pleasure of spending time with him while he worked for a dredging company at Oregon Inlet on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.  We kept in touch for years on our birthdays and during hurricanes.  I knew something was wrong when I heard nothing in the last couple of years.  Please know he was a positive and great influence in my life.    He will be missed!  Laurie Hodges    Manteo NC

Joe- Rob & I traced your family tree back to your 5th great grandparents on your Dad & Mom side. I’ll be happy to email you the link. I miss Rob and know his mighty soul is putting words together in the afterlife. Sending you my deepest condolences and take care of you- Rob would want that. Lynne

I am Robert's brother Joe. I truly believe Robert would want everyone to know these things. Robert's dad was a family doctor, Dr.John Lewis Dyer his grandfather was Dr.Isadore Dyer sr. He started the first leprosy Hospital in Carville, Louisiana. He was also Dean of Tulane MEDICAL school. There is a rather large painting of him on the 2nd floor of the MEDICAL School. Every one who knew or met Robert new right away that He was a special guy. He wrote poetry and was an expert photographer. He was also a very good guitar player. He was a civil engineer in the business for over 45 years! So that's all for now. Please enjoy this and write any thoughts you might have.    R.I.P. Robert you deserve a rest look forward to seeing you soon. Joseph M. Dyer 318.704.4334

Great memories listening to music together!  Bob introduced me to jazz in the 70’s .  I always enjoyed his company!

I've known Rob since I moved across the street from his house on Laurel in 2000. I encouraged him to write and he took that little encouragement and became an incredible poet. I had no idea he passed until I searched his name, having not heard from him in months, and sadly came across this obituary.  He was really one-of-a-kind, in just about every way, and my life was better for having known him. 

Rob - I am grateful that the divine intervened and sat us next to each other on that flight from Houston to New Orleans in 2014.  I have been so deeply blessed to have your friendship, kindness, wisdom and poetry ever since.   Thank you for your generosity of spirit, and for always being stone cold you.  You are missed.    

Robert was laid to rest on December 14,2020. He rest with many loved ones. I truly feel He is at Peace now. It was a small service with people who really loved him so much. I can truly say that it will take a long time and much heartache before we recover from this if ever! I want to say He would not want us to mourn but celebrate his life that was lived to the fullest. Brother always saw the good side of the coin! So Brother rest easy and We will carry on with you in our Hearts forever. I and others will visit Avenue D often. O I and Amy will get you to the Gulf Coast soon. 
Joseph Dyer 

Rob, I will always treasure our friendship and am still in shock at your passing. I send love & grace to your family, friends & Amy. Thank you for being you.

Never forgotten Brother. Rest in peace. Tell Mr.H hello.  Later, BW

I loved you so much. I wish I had the chance to tell you that again.

Your son, 

Hunter
