Robert is a veteran, proudly serving his country in the U.S. Air Force. He was a sharp dressed man that enjoyed playing golf, a yearly trip to Branson, bowling on a league with his brothers, but he really loved to dance. Robert was an excellent dancer and taught dancing lessons at the Rio for a while. He will be sorely missed by his family and friends. Robert was the same for everyone and often said take me for who I am or don't take me at all.
