When i heard this news yesterday, it knocked me for six, Robert was a top bloke and a good friend. Like Pele and her family , Robert had visited me on his way home(just down the road) on a few occassions for a chat and a cuppa .
The Subaru community has lost a true friend.
Our thoughts go out to his partner Kim & his family at this sad time

Unhappy Message from Lee

<on behalf of Lee, my husband>

Why, oh why? Just recently Robert had become a very close friend of Arron & I, he was always willing to help & nothing was too much bother. I have great memories of the short time that we knew him, a couple come to mind...

Helping me decorate the outside of my house for Christmas in the pouring rain, just so Jake could see his trains light up the house.
Our weekly run out with Arron for a beer & a drive - insults flying thick & fast....
Daily phone calls - I used to worry if I didn't hear from you by 4, so I would have to ring you.
Helping me put up the CCTV cameras just this Friday, then coming to Dover with me on a call out just so that I wouldn't be driving on my own.

Rest In Peace Rupert...

Lee

I have read Pele's sad news 3 times now hoping i had made a mistake,I only knew Rob briefly but in that short time he came across as a honest,genuine good guy.A tragic loss like this makes us realise what a fragile gift life is.
My deepest condolences to Robs family. Mark.
