I’m just now learning of Robert’s passing. I enjoyed many visits business related over 20 years at Hudson Printing in Longview. We played golf and shared stories including family life and our goals after retirement. So sorry for the loss and I wish the family all the Holiday blessing and great memories for the Holiday season and years to come. What a great man and father. He will be missed.

Robert, It is now 3 PM central time and I hear that they are having a time to remember you. So I thought I would. I open this can of Sol beer in your honor. Here is to you my friend. You were the first person to call me friend when I moved to Longview in 1979. I recall that every one you met you found the good in and called them friends. Sitting on my porch today, I remember the nights we hit golf balls from the dock of Hudson Printing just to see if we could get them over the trees to the 7-11 on young street. The many trees you climbed to cut down. The tree you cut for me for firewood that was full of poison oak. The scorpion in your pants that early morning before you came to work. Lots of memories. The best was how much you loved your family and children and would do anything for them. Here's to you my friend, Cheers, We will miss you and your spirit.!
So sorry to hear of Robert's passing. He was blessed with such a great since of vision whether it was designing a factory expansion plan to enhance our work flow or to see the best in people around him. He was so uplifting to so many of us. He will be greatly missed. Prayers going up for friends and family.
Praying for all you guys during this time. Joyce Gardner
