"Dear Yvonne, We are so sad to hear about Robbie's passing. The memories of knowing him as a child are vivid in our minds. We know for experience the great pain of looking a child,and we hope you can ease that pain with the happy memories of the past. Our love to you ,Jennifer and Hayden. Peace. Nelly,George and children, specially Andy."

"Dear Jen, Hayden and Family, I'm so sorry for the your loss. I cant' even imagine. I"m sorry for not keeping in touch better. I will try and do better. I will miss him so much on facebook. I enjoyed his post so much. Rob was such a wonderful brother. You guys mean so much to me, you were there when I needed someone the most. Thank you. Sorry I couldn't be there but know I'm there in spirit. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Gabe"

"Dear Jen and Hayden, My deepest sympathies on the loss of your husband and father. I worked on second shift with Rob at Schmidt Printing in Byron around 13 years ago. He was a terrific coworker and friend. As I was a newly hired employee, I very much appreciated Rob's kindness and willingness to help me. His friendly attitude and sense of humor made those long evening hours go by in no time. A friend and coworker of ours employed her zany creativity in Photoshop to remake a photo of Batman & Robin into a Patman and Robin poster, whereby she replaced the original faces with ours; I being Patman due to my first name, and of course, Rob being Robin. I still have it as a reminder of Rob's ability to see the humor in so many things, even when he was the target of our humor. He played along, giving us the gift of his humility, which was taught by his example.  He will be dearly missed by so many people. So many of us at Schmidt find it hard to believe he is gone. But he is definitely in our memories. May God be with you, Jen and Hayden, and comfort you during this most difficult time. Pat"

"Jen and Hayden - I am sorry so to hear of your loss.  Barb"

"I have the same job as Rob in Denver.  I didn't know him well, but when we met here in Denver for training meetings over the last few years, I found him to be a gentle, quiet soul with a sweet countenance.  When I looked at him and spoke with him, he was easy to love.  It was easy to see the light of Christ in his eyes.  I will miss him.  I will pray for the comfort of his family and friends."

"Jen and Hayden, I want to offer you my deepest sympathy on the death of Rob. I worked with him at Schmidt. Robs great sense of humor are what I remember most and he was always a please to be around. You will be in my thoughts and prayers today as you lay him to rest. He will always be with you in memories and Spirit. Jolene"

"Please know our thoughts prayer are with you all."

"Rob was such a wonderful person to work with and we will all miss him.  My prayers and thoughts go out to all his family members at this difficult time."

"Jen, I just heard the news.  I am so terribly sorry.  Our prays are with you. "

"Those lucky enough to have faith in their creator can at least find a degree of solace knowing Rob has indeed returned to a better place. John recorded in the Book of Revelation a testament to this. In Chapter 20:4 is it says  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. In the Book of Mormon, Alma 11: 44 provides additional insight to what John reveled. Now, this restoration shall come to all, both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female, both the wicked and the righteous; and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost; but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame, as it is now, or in the body, and shall be brought and be arraigned before the bar of Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, which is one Eternal God In Alma 40:11-12 we can gain even greater assurance of the transformation to this new life. 11 Now, concerning the state of the soul between death and the resurrectionBehold, it has been made known unto me by an angel, that the spirits of all men, as soon as they are departed from this mortal body, yea, the spirits of all men, whether they be good or evil, are taken home to that God who gave them life. 12 And then shall it come to pass, that the spirits of those who are righteous are received into a state of happiness, which is called paradise, a state of rest, a state of peace, where they shall rest from all their troubles and from all care, and sorrow. Years ago Sister Mary Brigh Cassidy, administrator of Saint Marys hospital in Rochester MN said I believe in Gods master plan in lives. He moves people in and out of others lives, and each leaves his mark on the other. You will find you are made up of bits and pieces of all who ever touched your life and you are more because of it, and you would be less if they had not touched you. Rob appears to have been a praiseworthy example of someone who demonstrated the last sentence of this quote. No truer words could be applied to Rob and no greater legacy could ever be left by him. Please take some time to reflect on how Rob touched each of you. May each of you be blessed with the peace of our Savior. Because of the time of year your loss may in some ways be more difficult in the future. However because of what happened at this time over two thousand years ago you will continue to feel a degree of peace and joy as well. "

"Jen and Hayden,  This is the saddest Christmas ever.  Wishing you peace and comfort and hoping that somehow your lives can again find some happiness.  Al and Deb"

"Jen and Hayden: I couldn't express it better than Janet Major's post.  You ARE an eternal family, and possess that faith that will see you through.  Our love to you both. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8.  You will dance again, and those of us who remain need you to."

"Jen and Hayden, I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my prayers. Look to God, He will bring you through this very difficult time. May God be with your family. "

"Jen & Hayden, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. "

"Jen, my heart aches for you with this news. I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are going out for you, Hayden, and the rest of your family."

"Jennifer, Hayden, and the rest of the family... We wish we could be there for hugs and support... we have fond memories of the times we have spent with you and Rob.  We love him and will miss him.  Our thoughts and special prayers are for you to find comfort and peace at this time.  The gospel is true... there is life after death... you will get to see Rob again... you are an eternal family.  The love that you share for each other is obvious to the rest of us.  In the quiet moments, you may feel Rob's presence near you... the spirit world is not far away.  He is your guardian angel now...  Let us know what we can do for you... Love always and forever, The Douglas and Janet Major family."

"Thoughts and prayers goes out to the family may God be with you all at this very difficult time . So sorry for the loss of your loved one ."

My heart goes out to you and your family at this time of your loss. God is always with us,  even at these terrible times in our lives. God bless, Mary Gillard"

"Good photo of Rob. It reminds me of the guitar he had in California which he said he was going to "do a Jimi Hendrix" to before he went home. I don't recall if it ever happened. Jennifer, you and Hayden have my heartfelt sympathies and my prayers. May God bless you both and help you heal."

"Dear Mast family, We are very sorry for the loss of Robert. Please know that you will be in our prayers.x Jared and Jill Petersen "

"I express my deepest sympathy to the family for this loss. Rob has been an exemplary employee. I did not get as much individual time with him when he would come to Denver for meetings, but when I came to Rochester to visit or to do a PAR (Performance Appraisal Review), we were able to spend more individual time together.  I have been able to feel close to his family as he shared information and memories. He kept all the files and project books up to date and in fantastic order. It was an honor to know and associate with Rob."

"Jen, Hayden, I'm so sorry for your loss"

"Jen & Hayden My heart breaks at the loss of your beloved Rob, your husband, Hayden's father and my friend. He was the sweetest man I ever knew who loved his family deeply. I want you both to know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers, find strength in God to help you through this. Twila Smith"

"I just recently renewed my connection with Bob, and last I had heard from him was back in January. I just thought he was very busy, but am totally shocked at hearing about him passing away. It totally breaks my heart to know this, and to have not gotten to know him as a close relative that I had desired."

"Robert was always a good friend. He visited many times with us when he was in the DC area. His suggestions on where to visit in France made our trip much more enjoyable. George and I will "toast" you often...with fond rememberances. Our sympathy to his mother and other family members."

"I will miss our conversations in passing. Still in shock that you are no longer here. You and your family were the best neighbors we had. Thank you Robert."

"Many fond memories of Robert from Iowa City days. Was shocked to hear of his death. Deepest condolences to all family and friends"

"I was so shocked to hear the news of my good friend, I still find it hard to believe that he won't be stopping every once in a while to visit, drink a glass of wine, and hear his great stories. I will miss him."

"I have lost a long-standing friend. I keep many good memories of going to art exhibitions,museums and restaurants when Robert came to see us in France. Our friendship began when I arrived in Iowa City as a foreign student 40 years ago, Robert made me feel welcome. Yveline and I have lost a true and caring friend."

"I am saddened by Bob's untimely death. He was the definitive music connoisseur. I trust that he and my Dad are singing tenor in Heaven's choir."

"Robert was a friend of the Scherrer family for over 40 years. There are just too many memories to write in this small space. We will miss not being able to consult/debate with Robert on many contemporary and timeless topics. We are still stunned and saddened that he is gone. He was a unique and talented person, and we will miss him very much. Our hearts go out to his many friends and family; especially his mother, Vi."

"Robert was a good friend of the family and a good neighbor. I will miss our backyard talks. My thoughts and prayers are with Robert's family during this difficult time."

"Bruce and I are deeply saddened and we will miss Robert very much. He was a great talent and our world will forever be changed. We remember fondly going to his home where he cooked gourmet dinners and blessed us with impromtu concerts on his piano. We will miss you our friend and may God Bless."

"Violet, I'm so sorry for your loss. Robert was one of the nicest people I've ever known. I hadn't seen him since his dad's memorial service and had no idea things were so serious."

"To all Bob's friends, this is a real shock. We all expect to live forever. My condolences to his mother and his friends."

"Robert was a great friend and I will miss him very much. His dinner parties were fun (as well as the food being the best!). My family will miss his presence at our gatherings which he often attended. My sympathy goes out to his mother and Aunt Marian."

"Robert was a classmate and friend and always a "class act". Bill and I will miss his wonderful dinner parties and stories. Good memories. Last Saturday, Sharon, Mary and I toasted you, Robert,while we reminisced. We wanted to toast you with Dom but Jody's was fresh out...sorry Robert. You left us too soon! Ruthann (Hoffman) Baumgardner"

"Frances McRoberts and I send our thoughts to Violet and to Robert's other family members and friends. We enjoyed Robert's vibrant spirit, intelligence and wit and we will always think of him. Regards, Pam and Frances"

"I was so saddened to read of the passing of Robert. I hadn't seen him in many years, but fondly remember being his classmate. On one particular occasion he deeply touched me with his kindness and friendship. I will keep his mother and family in my prayers and thoughts, and want you to know what a special person he was. Peace be with you."

"Robert was an immensely talented and kind friend. He will be missed."
