Many great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and in-laws

Robert was born in Peoria, Illinois. He spent many years in Wisconsin and then Minnesota. Robert was a hard worker and spent many years working for Burlington Northern Railroad. Robert cared for others and provided day care to nieces and a nephew. He had many loves. His family being his main one. He also loved to drive whether it was his car or motorcycle. He could drive for hours. He loved music and dancing. He would typically be the last one on the dance floor. Robert was a great cook and usually was the one grilling at picnics. Watching Robert and Julie together, you could see the love they shared. Seeing them "teasing" with each other was so endearing. Robert was a curious man and always wanted to know more; especially with things happening in a loved one's life.

Robert will be greatly missed by those that knew him.

We love you Robert and thank you for your loving presence in our lives!!
