Robert Lawrence Valencia

He was born in Baltimore, Maryland to Marvin & Helen Valencia on November 22nd 1954, the youngest of 3 children.

Many years later, their love was rekindled and they were finally married in 2014. Bob was a pioneer in the medical industry for over 45 years. Along with a brilliant mind filled with infinite industry knowledge, his relentless support of product development and worldwide sales made him a well-respected member of the medical community.

Robert was a connoisseur of fine wine, first-class dining, and preferably - Cuban cigars. His passion for music was only rivaled by his obsession with sports, which is an understatement. He was a world traveler, and most recently spent a month with his wife in multiple European countries; indulging in entertainment, high caliber spirits and the finest foods that Europe has to offer. Robert had an unmatched zest for life, evident by the sparkle in his eyes. His storytelling abilities allowed you to relive his experiences as if they were your own. Robert was everyone's best friend, he did not judge and lived as though others did the same. He was bigger than life, and there will never be another person like him.
