Monticello, AR Wednesday, June 4, 2025 Robert was one of my younger brothers, I loved him with all my heart. We played together, prayed together, hunted and fished together, camped out together,worked together and done many other things together. I hurt for the loss of him and no longer being able to visit and talk with each other.But I know that he is in Jesus's arms now and he no longer has to deal with the misery and pain that he was suffering with. I also know that he is with all of his loved ones that had passed on. I will miss him dearly. Rest in peace and bye for now,
