I will fondly remember Mr R as everyone’s mate. I spent many a weekend at Vasey Grove as a teenager and Robbie was always super friendly and interested in what was going on in everyone’s lives. I don’t think I can remember a single occasion where he was cranky. Up for a chat and always smiling, he was a real pleasure to be around. RIP Mr R. Thank you for sharing your warmth and your home with me and so many others over the years. Much love, Rie

I have fond memories of my cousin "Rob" . He was the life of the party at all our family gatherings. Rest in Peace Rob.

Robbie was like a second Dad growing up. He was so so much fun and was so kind and encouraging. I loved it when he was a bus driver and he pulled over and got all the kids icy poles. I loved it when he cleaned the school and Belinda and I ran around laughing discovering areas of the school we didn’t know existed and hanging out with the skeletons. You always made me feel a part of the family and never minded when I came over weekend after weekend. You love to treat us to lots of lovely surprises and always warm up for a laugh! You will be missed by your beautiful family. You made a real impact on many and loved on everyone and were a beautiful Christian witness.
