Hello Family and Friends,

On August 14th, Robert was tragically, and unexpectedly shot and killed, while attempting to protect his family, and friends. Even after his passing he continues to give as he listed himself a donor. 

Robert had a fun-loving personality and a smile that matched. He went with the flow and always lived in the moment. He saw the humor in the smallest things. He was driven, determined, and hard-working. He made the best of long days in the scorching heat while working in construction. Recently, he started his own entrepreneurial adventure-Calistreetzdetailing. He didn’t get to live long enough to see the full potential of his car detailing business but we are confident his work ethic would have made it a success. Robert held many roles but his favorite was that of being a father. His children were his weakness in the best possible way. He adored all four of them- Lily, Athena, Lorenzo, and William. He was proud of Lily’s academic accomplishments and her wisdom. He loved Athena’s outspokenness and courageous spirit. He admired Lorenzo’s long hair and athletic build. He talked about William’s love for Thomas the Train and kind heart. They were his greatest love and it showed.

 Robert was preceded in death by his Father William leaves behind his mother Antoinette, his siblings Tommy, Kim, Bernadette, Arthur and his forever-love Stephanie, family & friends. Now they all must navigate this world without him. No one should have to endure the pain they are suffering and at the same time worry about the expenses of a funeral. He died doing what he is known for, protecting the ones he loves. All funds collected will be used towards Robert’s funeral expenses and anything over the cost of his services, will be divided evenly among his children. His family thanks you in advance for your loving support and generosity. The distribution of all donations will be overseen by his cousins, Roman, Angelina, and Marlina.
