Kim had two daughters from her first marriage and Robert became a dad overnight.  He thrived at fatherhood and loved all his girls so much.  Over the next 40 years Robert and Kim lived life to the fullest traveling, camping, and enjoying their family.

Robert continued his passion for working in the sales industry and opened his own business with his good friend and they have been in business for more than 20 years.

Robert had many favorite past times over the years.  He loved horses; he loved riding them, breaking them and taking care of them.  He participated in many wagon trains over the years.  His passion for the outdoors never dimmed either; he loved camping, fishing, and hunting.  He shared this passion with his grandchildren and took them camping as often as possible.

Robert will be remembered for all the heart he shared with his friends and family. He truly loved each of them- and if you knew him, you knew it. When his time came, he carried himself with dignity, strength, and full of love for those who went before him. He will be missed dearly.
