Best memories of Robert playing the piano for me after our wreck. After a while he made me a tape of his playing. Beautiful

My family moved into a house that we bought from the McClellands where Robert had built several amazing wooden structures/forts in the backyard with, and for his sons. One of the forts even had electrical fixtures which I thought was magical. I have fond memories of playing in those forts growing up and I remember thinking that Robert was greatest engineer and builder in town. Our prayers are with your family.
