You could always find Robert dancing in the crowd at Phish shows, his all time favorite band. Robert also enjoyed fishing at the Cape. In the summer, you could find him tending to his garden. He never hesitated to lend out a helping hand to anyone who needed it. Robert was a great friend to so many and his quick wit and humor always lit up the room. Robert was known to embrace the laid-back side of life. Above all, he was a proud grandfather to August.
In honor of Robert, take a second to put on his favorite Phish song “Blaze On” and step outside for a little fresh air.
