Grandpa, what kind of person would I be to not sign your guest book Love you till I die, meet you on the other side. I’m still mad that you left us so soon, but I guess I have to find comfort knowing that you’re at the ultimate resort spot of the universe. Kiss your mom on the cheek for me, since she raised such a radical man.

Doris so sorry for your loss. Many great memories of Rob, from high school, beach partys, music with the many bands he was a roadie for, and his great sense of humor. Peace to you and your family.
RIP Rob. Rock on!!

Rob was great fun growing up in South Haven. First working and playing on the Northside of town with the Resorts and bands and later as a classmate in High School. Although we disagreed on many subjects we had a way of respecting each others perspectives. Prayers for the family and happy that Rob is now out of pain and at peace.
