Robert spent his entire life building relationships both professionally; first in the restaurant business, then the commercial facilities service industry, and also personally with his family and friends. Robert was known for his sense of humor and quick wit, his dedication to his family and his integrity and compassionate work ethic. He was a remarkable example of courage and determination for his children and always kept his promise. He modeled honest values and encouraged his children to never give up no matter what obstacles were in front of them and to work hard to achieve their goals.
