I knew Keren & Rob during his years as a Rythmn Lizard. An excellent guitarist with compassion for his fellow band mates, quiet leadership and diplomacy were strong characteristics within Rob.
My heartfelt condolences to Keren and their three sons. May you rest in peace, Rob and may God provide comfort to your family during their time of sorrow.

He felt like a brother right from the first gathering of the Rhythm Lizards… he accepted us all as equal voices even though it was rare toget him on a mike … he saw the benefit of grabbing all of those drums and percussion instruments and participating in a free show for wild Boy Scouts at Camp Russell He held his own in life , love ❤️ and Fathership Truly blessed to know Robert and Keren Let’s not mention the wedding cake That was straight up ghost
I've known you, Rob only about eight years, since Miles joined Troop 20, and he and Braden were in the same patrol under patrol leader Spencer Warrick. You eventually became committee chair, but I didn't appreciate how important that role is until we ran into Covid and then as I got ready to be Scout Master. I discovered that the committee chair is responsible for a constant stream of work to keep the troop running, make arrangements, and communicate with all adult leaders and parents. You did a great job of all that, and I grew to respect you more and more. We saw each other pretty often due to troop activities, and like all the Troop 20 leaders, we enjoyed each other's company and appreciated each other. Our relationship changed to something a lot more personal when you told us that you had cancer and had been given only a couple more years to live. We started to meet as a group of friends then, leaving scouts aside. You passed your duties on to Chris Fraley, and still you were getting and sending a stream of emails dealing with scouts. Our relationship was becoming a friendship, and what deepened the friendship rapidly was the way you handled your diagnosis, your treatment, and the rest of your life. You got rid of your bees so Keren wouldn't have to bother with it and you helped set Keren up in the business that she wanted. You insisted that she keep active in the troop. You were thinking of her, you was thinking of your sons, and you never stopped having room in your heart and mind to think of others: me and my wife Paula included. The more time I spent with you, the more love and friendship I got from you. We could talk about anything--scouts of course, by which I mean the boys and young men in Troop 20; you kept up a strong interest in their progress and wanted to hear about it. The strong belief in scouting is what propelled you to do so much for the troop. That belief came about through your sons' experiences. You wanted to give to others' sons what your sons had gotten. We talked about other things as well. You weren't afraid to say you didn't want to die, but that said, you were able to express genuine gratitude for the many kindnesses and attentions that people wanted to shower on you. Seeing that moved me, made me realize some truths I learned from philosophy. Living well, we are told, is the process of dying well, for every day brings us closer to death. Dying well is a reflection of a life well lived. Watching you, Rob, being with you, Rob, feeling the connection with you, Rob taught me what it is to live and die well. All who know you already know the truth of what I have said about you from their own experience; you were the same to everyone. I miss you now, but I find this comforting, because it's a sign of how much you gave me. I am privileged to have been your friend. I will always hold you and our friendship close. Thank you, my friend!
