Robert was one of the most down to earth people I have ever met, I enjoyed my time I spent with him. What started out as a caregiver/patient relationship turned into a friendship. Throughout what must have been some uncomfortable times Robert maintained a positive attitude and always had a smile and nice word for everyone.
