One of the greatest characters in the greenhouse industry. I miss him.

Dear Bob- I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine your pain at this time. I am sending thoughts and prayers your way. "Another rose has bloomed in heaven. And the angels sing!"

Sadly today we all have to say farewell to Robbie. Having known him since the day he was born, makes it very hard to think about how much we will all miss his smile and fun loving ways. He still called me Aunt Aliki, just as he did when he was a young boy. There will always be a special place for him in my heart.

I am still so shocked and saddened by Robby's passing.  He was always so fun and sweet to my Andi and you could tell he just loved her to pieces!  He did have a contagious laugh and smile.....just a very and kind-hearted soul.  He truly was sunshine in our lives.  God bless him and Uncle Bobby who we love and pray for daily.  Loving memories, Toni-Marie and Andi

We are very sad to hear of Robbie's passing. He was a very kind and generous man. He will truly be missed. RIP my friend

Robbie's constant good humor was infectious; the lights always brightened when Robbie was around. Goodnight, good friend.

It is with heart felt sadness that we heard about Robbie's passing.  We had the pleasure of knowing him both professionally and personally.  He could always be counted on to handle any situation with humor, honesty, respect and class.  We will miss him.

I had the great pleasure of working with Robbie for several years. 

When our business was in its' darkest hour, Robbie provided great judgement and calm - and steered us through.

He was a warm and caring person, and will be greatly missed.

Condolences to his family and friends.

Robbie Nearing was truly a wonderful person and certainly one of the best people to golf with! He will be missed.

Robbie was one of my favorite golfing buddies and business associate. We always had a bet on the game and we are probably close to even on the win-lose. We will miss him a great deal.  George Dean
