Condolences to the entire family. May the loyal love of Almighty God comfort you all.
I am truly sorry for your loss. Rob had worked with me for quite a few years. We had became good friends, and he had become a frequent staple in mine, and my family’s lives. My daughter adored him, and I honestly don’t even know how to begin to break the news to her. She will be heartbroken. She has asked about him often, and unfortunately, due to chaotic schedules, it has been months since we have last saw him. I only hope that he is looking down, and knows how terribly he will be missed. He got me on the path of vaping, and helped dramatically turn my health around because of it. I owe it to him for helping me quit cigarettes for good. I cannot believe I lost such a good friend and confidant. I am terribly sorry for your loss, and though you may not have ever met me, I hope it brings some comfort in knowing that he had people around him that cared about him and enjoyed every minute of his company. I am so sorry. Me and my family send all of our love to you all. May it bring some solace in knowing how greatly, and positively, your loved one had impacted people’s lives.
