Robert dedicated much of his life to serving his country.

He was a true patriot who loved his country deeply and was equally proud of his home state of Texas.

Outside of his military service, Robert had a love for music and enjoyed singing karaoke. He liked to play chess with his own made-up rules (even if he never would admit to that) he loved reading, telling stories, writing poems, learning and collecting fun toys. He loved adventure and planning his next fun purchase to decorate his “party space” aka his room. He enjoyed tinkering and building model airplanes and rockets when his kids were younger. He was a dreamer, always talking about and dreaming of fun places to visit. Some of his happiest times were those spent with his wife and family. He also loved to go fishing—even if, as his family would lovingly tell you, he didn’t ever catch much.

He was proceeded in death by his amazing wife Terri, his mom Shirley and stepdad John, his father Bruce and stepmom Mickey, and His brothers David and Johnny Matt.
