Rob and I met in church in Greenville SC. We became fast friends and I began working for Rob helping him start a new business venture that was ultimately a success. Rob was a great teacher and tutor. He helped so many students by doing that which he did best. Rob helped me immensely during a time in my life that ultimately led to permanent physical disability. I had no one else in my life that could be there for me but Rob. I already miss him and I will be forever in his debt.

I was saddened to read of Robbie's death. He will always be Robbie to me - a bright, energetic, curious kindergartener who brought me many hours of joy in teaching. I see that he fulfilled all of the things that I would have expected from him and his wonder at the world as a six year old. My heart felt prayers go out to his family for what I see as a real loss to the world. Sincerely, Ellen Schubert

I still see him in front of the class in the new Business School at Morgan State University in 2016. All he ever wanted for all of us was to understand the GMAT Prep material and he made sure we did.. Lost for words.. R.I.P

Now you are in his Loving arms, I will miss you but I know I will see you again thank you for your faithfulness your compassion dedication to sacrifice to show the love of Christ. You were like a rock I could sit down when I was tired and give me encouragement and time to rest from the heaviness of the world, I get enough strength to get up fight the spiritual battle again and again. You're always there to talk late at night on your drive home about troubles with work, women, and the spiritual fight. I will really miss you I thank God for you.

You believe in God; believe also in me.2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.7 If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. - John 14:1-4,6-7,23,27 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John14:1-4,6-7,23,27&version=NIV

Rob was my friend at Duke. He was always ready to lend an ear to others' troubles and give good advice. I remember his senior project was a scale that you stood on and jumped and it weighed you by the time you were airborne... he was just a neat guy. Miss him now. Dallas Meeker, Duke '94

Bob and Diana and family, Our deepest sympathies to you and to all his loved ones and friends. We lost touch with each other by the demands of life, but seeing Robert's accomplishments and reading about where his interests laid, I know you and your family grieve for him and for all he was privately in each of your hearts. He was a beautiful baby boy and his good looks stayed with him all of his life. Gordon and I are so very sad for the loss of your son. Our Brian and your Robert had a lot in common. Brian makes his living with his math skills and he also was very involved in band. May our good Lord bring peace to your hearts in your time of deep sadness. This is not the end of Robert, but the beginning of eternal life with our Jesus who loves him and is taking care of him. At times when we are so broken hearted, it is time to weep. But with this comes a promise, that God does prepare a place for us and that one day every tear will be wiped away. God bless all of you. Know without a doubt nothing will ever hurt him again. For all he was and for the happiness he brought into your lives, we know you will cherish his memory and look forward to when you meet again in God's kingdom. We hope it comforts you knowing you were there for him, loving him, and helping him to grow into the good man he was. May God bless you and help comfort you in your grief. This is shocking and heart-breaking news. We are so deeply sorry for your loss of your precious son. Sincerely, Bev and Gordon Tozer

I just wanted to say our whole family was shocked and stunned when we heard of Rob's untimely death. We can't imagine what you must be going through right now, but we want you to know that you have our deepest sympathies. We all have fond and positive memories of Rob as I'm sure all who knew him do as well. I first got to know him as a Cub Scout. His vibrant personality always stood out. I could just tell, this little guy was going to be an outstanding individual -- and he was!! I always enjoyed my contacts with Rob at William Penn as well as the times I ran across him later on. He brought complete dedication to every thing he did and his success reflected well on you, his schools and his community. He will be sadly missed by all who had the fortune to meet him.

So sad to read about Rob's passing. I was his school nurse at WPHS. He was a delightful young man whose visits to my office were infrequent but always memorable and respectful. So sorry for your loss.

Rob was my oldest friend. We met when I changed schools in 1st Grade. I was scared. Rob befriended me, took charge, was a leader even then that taught me to be a leader too. When did failed, Rob supported me. When I "dropped the flag" Rob Swindon made me pick it back up. I loved him as my Brother. ..I'll go hippie..He ain't heavy..I was as proud as sad to carry him to his grave. But! I know! KNOW! He is with our God, Jesus Christ. Because few in our era have earned it as he did. God Bless and goodnight my friend. I miss you so much. David

Sometimes I search the internet for old friends, this was an unfortunate discovery today. Rob and I were not close; we were in several middle and high school classes. He was one of the most polite, intelligent, and secure people I ever met. I hope to see you again.
