Harvey Joe Robben. Born 12/29/1950, passed away 11/17/2015. Harvey was a retired communication tower site manager and, until his death, an active small farmer his wife called him the "Pied Piper" because of the way the cows could hear the sound of his truck or his voice and knew it was time to eat. His faithful dog, Beau, his companion (and other choice names), greeted him every morning with a wag of the tail and lots of kisses. He married Laura (Robertson) Robben on August 10, 1996, in Prairie Village KS.
