    This is a major loss. I hadn't spoke with Rob for a number of years, but his friendship was something very important to me earlier in life. I have many great memories to reflect on in the coming days and wish his family nothing but the best in this trying time. Another one gone too soon. I guess god took him purely "Out Of Spite" if you were there you know. Rest easy old friend. Until we meet again.

    Rob and I met in high school and were instantly inseparable. We started our first band together, made comic strips in our high school paper that secretly parodied the faculty, painted murals for children's centers and designed an entire park for Cranberry township (despite obviously inexperienced), and countless other tales. We had the kind of friendship that was closer to family, and no matter how long we went without seeing each other each time we met up it was like no time had passed. I mourn my brother, my friend, my musical inspiration, my co-conspirator. You are irreplaceable, my dearest of friends.

    I met Bob through his wife Terrell. Bob was always a gentlemen and gentle whenever I was in his presence. I loved to see him playing his guitar and singing with the music. I remember when we went to watch him play at a venue. He was so happy, full of energy, great talent and had such a beautiful smile. So happy. He will be missed. I condolences and prayers to the family and friends.πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ
