Rob was born in Fort Pierce, FL on February 10, 1956. His father and mother were Robert Lynn Griffin and Teresa Thruman (Griffin) Summerlin. The family relocated to Vero Beach when Rob was 12 years old.
Rob worked in construction; initially as a surveyor and later as an electrician, and was skilled in all types of "handyman" tasks. He enjoyed outdoor activities and community events, and never met a stranger.
Survivors include his mother, Teresa T. Summerlin, and siblings: Rebecca Griffin, Patricia Wilde, Michael Summerlin, Glenda Graham, Michael Griffin, Jeffrey Griffin, Timothy Summerlin, and Debra Phillips.
Rob was preceded in death by his father Robert Lynn Griffin, and by his dad Charles Ramsey Summerlin.
A family celebration of life and memorial service will be held at a later date.
