Robert enjoyed playing his guitar, working and branding time.

To my family,
There is no grieving message that can explain how much my dad meant to me, my heart is aching. In the days to come I will hold tight and cherish all the wonderful memories I have of him. His sense of humour (he always had a joke to tell), his kind heart and his love for his family. Love you Papa

From: Laird Smith
Relation: He is the brother of a friend

I send my condolence to all of the family and friends of Robert.
