Uncle Robert you will be missed. We always enjoyed our time with you. Love Jamie & Brian
My deepest condolences to the family of Robert Aldridge!
I met Robert in September 2017 when I moved into the Millicent Crossing Neighborhood. He welcomed me with genuine warmth and many bowls of hot soup. His hospitality and generosity was unmatched by anyone.
I enjoyed our brief conversations about the Bible... brief, because we didn't always agree on interpretations.
Moreover, we happily agreed to disagree.
Robert was a good artist and a published writer, who encouraged me to write and publish my works. Most of all, he was a dear, reliable friend!
Although I met Robert only briefly after the loss of his step-daughter last year, each conversation left a strong impression. His kindness was unmistakable, and the love he had for his family shone through. He lived his faith with sincerity and shared his talents generously as an artist. My prayers and deepest sympathy are with his family now.
In Loving Memory
He was the only real grandpa I’ve ever known, and I’ll always be grateful. His love for the Lord shaped so much of who he was, and it encouraged me deeply—especially when I was a new believer, visiting their church and listening to him teach about dinosaurs in the Bible.
I always admired his creativity and his passion for art; it was refreshing and so uniquely him. And the way he treated my daughter, Hermione, with such gentleness and joy meant more to me than he ever knew.
I’m heartbroken that he’s gone, but I’m also rejoicing that he is resting in the presence of the Lord, with a renewed mind and body. I’m thankful for his life, his example, and the memories we get to carry forward.
