You dont know me but... / Ashley Akers (None) I came upon this site while i was visiting my boyfriend's. He too was taken from me by someone stupid, driving drunk and ran a stop sign on January 14, 2006. Just a day after he graduated. I know there is nothing i can say to make anything better for you. But stay strong, dont let your emotions get the best of you, and just take it day by day. I believe Josh is still here with me. All you can do is think of the good. It might help. I hope Robert's family and friends the best. Stay safe and good luck with everything.
God bless you and your family / Karran Cowett
What wonderful memories you have of your Robert. I lost my nephew in April of 2004 he was 16 at the time, and as I was reading about Robert and his eating habits while taking a bath I was reminded of my Jamie. He would get up every morning and take his breakfast, toothbrush and paste, and shaving equipment into the shower with him because he said he could get ready for school faster if he did everything at once. I I know about your hurts, and pain, but Thank God for the memories. Karran
I AM SO SORRY 4 THE LOSS OF YOUR LITTLE ANGEL I FEEL YOUR PAIN 4 I LOSS MY ANGEL MELINDA 8 MOUNTS AGO MY LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME GOD BLESS YOU ALL / MOM OF ANGEL MELINDA RIEGER
I am so deeply sorry your son Robert was taken way too young / Brenda Lewis Taylor's Mom as was my Taylor @ the age of 14. He was also hit by an irresponsible driver while bike riding, his best friend Caleb was also killed. Robert sounds like the light of your life. It seems impossible for one minute all the energy and life to be gone in a split second. It's just not right. I hope Taylor and your precious boy Robert are friends in heaven and exploring everyplace there together. Love and peace to this family of this wonderful boy Brenda http://taylor-lewis.memory-of.com
In Memory of Alyssa Ashley Avelar (1985-2005) / Lori Avelar Dear Robert - I know all too well the pain that your family feels for I also lost the most precious gift God could bestow. Your tribute is amazing and it breaks my heart how God reaches down and snatches up the most beautiful flowers in His Garden while the dregs of the earth live on.
Stay close to your Mom and the rest of your family. Alyssa left behind her little brother Jordyn and I can see a lot of him in you. Blessings sweet Angel - May God keep you in his ever loving care -

one loving little boy / Sally WEST (none)
hey robert and family
you're story really hit me like a tunn of bricks robert you sure sound like one special little boy and you and your family shouls be so proud of that. it would have been a pleasure to even be an aquaintance. but you know god doesnt just take everyone up to heaven with him he only picks the most precious of people to be there with him. so maybe he has a special reason for taking such a wonderful boy from our world. REST IN PEACE DEAR ROBERT i hope to see you in heaven!
thankyou to the family for posting this you have really opened my eyes to the dangers of road accidents and i really appreciate it.
I just wanted to say.. / Jenny Craig
I visit this website often, to catch up with my darling brother, and in so doing often read the other sites. Today I came by yours Robert, and for the first time felt I just had to write you a tribute. I went through your photographs and they made me cry - you are such a beautiful boy and you have the most amazing family - the love comes right through the screen! The picture that I found, as someone who does not know you or your family, which just 'says it all' is the one marked 'A love like no other'. It is just a beautiful study of you and your Mom and Dad. You all look so happy and so at one with each other. You had a wonderful family life, it is so clear to see, even from across the water! How unfair life is - it is so wrong - I hope that you will always stay close to your Mom and Dad and stay the 'Three Stooges' with your sisters.
You have certainly touched my life today Robert, as have your family. I send my love to you all. To your family: Thank you for sharing this incredible boy with me, and your wonderful family. Close

Hello We are Thinking About Robert / Jamaes Long (I CARE )
Your loss is so close to ours. We loss our 12 year old son Maurice on 19 Oct 2005, due to the negligence of a driver. I read about your son and he is truly a caring and strong young man. I'm so deeply moved as to just how much Robert loved his entire family, for that is what helps us is knowing that our son was loved and he gave love back. Please know that a family in Germany is thinking and praying for you. For our family is loss and hurting beyond words.
Another Angel In Heaven / Veronica Walter
My heart goes out to you and your family for the loss of your son Robert. As one parent to another parent who has lost a precious gift, their son. You are in my prayers for the strengh to carry on. Close

"The Peacemaker" / Sister Peg (St. Lukes CCD )
January 2005 we received a letter from Sister Peg telling us that they were naming Robert "Peacemaker" for the month of January. January is when they want the children to reflect on how they handle themselves with each other in times of frustation. When Sister Peg had read an article on Roberts' life she said " everyone kept saying how much he was a peacemaker and always wanted everyone to get along. Robert never liked yelling or arguing.......his daddy always told him " what do you do when someones being nasty?", "I get on my bike and say see you later or maybe tomorrow when your not so nasty, right dad" "right Robert." We always taught Robert nobody likes a nasty boy, so do your best not to be........and really it just came natural for him to be nice. So, we thank you for honoring our Robert as an example of kindness and compassion and his example be carried on. The Linton Family Close

A Loving Tribute to our children "The Childrens Memorial Garden" / The Compassionate Friends "Children Remembered" (Children who have left us too soon )
This Memorial Garden was a dream made possible by many people from the loss of their child or a loved one and some just wanted to be a part of this amazing garden. We have made friendships from our loss of our son Robert. This group of remarkable people have come together in their time of grief to create a peaceful place for all of us. The Childrens Memorial Garden is a wonderful tribute to all the children who have died in Ocean County. The beautiful and peaceful setting is just the right place for anyone to go and find some quiet time in their journey through their grief. Throughout the garden are all pavers with our childrens names on them, so we pay tribute and never forget that they have touched our lives however brief they were with us. There are many children and many stories that come with each stone, some share with each other some memories and others just try to find some peace. Each one of us knows we aren't alone in this journey and the loss of our beloved child is a loss that nobody knows but us. Many businesses and township officials with all our families have showed their support through generous donations and love gifts to make this dream a reality. The Wall of Patrons is posted inside the entrance to the Garden. The Memorial Garden is in Winding River Park, Toms River, NJ. The website for any information is: www.OceanTCF.com. The Linton Family and all the hundreds of families would like to thank Bruce Jones and John Basaman for their endless work in making their dream possible for our families.
