Support Robby's Fight Against Cancer

Help Robby Fight Testicular Cancer

A Father, A Partner, A Brother, A Fisherman – Fighting the Toughest Battle of His Life

Hello, everyone. Our family is reaching out with heavy hearts and a desperate plea for support. On Tuesday, February 4, 2025, our beloved Robby was diagnosed with testicular cancer that has already spread to his liver and lungs.

Who is Robby?

Robby is the definition of a hardworking, loving, and laid-back guy who lives for his family and his passion for catfishing. He shares his life with his girlfriend Chelsea, and together they raise their five beautiful children:

Harper (11)

Carter (7)

Wesson (5)

Kennedy (3)

Max (5 months)

Robby is incredibly close to his siblings—Ilissa, Amanda, and Timothy Jr.—and has built a community of friends who share his love for fishing. As a dedicated member of the “Catfish USA (River Hogs)” Facebook group, he is well-known and loved by his fellow fishermen.

For nearly eight years, Robby has worked at Burlan Manufacturing, where his manager and coworkers deeply miss him since his diagnosis.

How It All Happened

What started as what seemed like the flu turned into something far more serious. Robby had been sick for two weeks, feeling weak and unable to recover. On February 3rd, he became so weak that he couldn’t physically get to the hospital. An ambulance was called, rushing him to Atrium Health in Lincolnton, NC.

The following morning, our worst fears were confirmed—Robby has testicular cancer, and it has already spread to his liver and lungs.

The Road Ahead

Right now, Robby remains in the ER at Atrium Health in Lincolnton, NC, waiting for a room at CMC in Charlotte, NC, where some of the best cancer specialists will take over his care. He will need surgery, chemotherapy, and multiple other treatments to fight this aggressive disease.
