Robert J. Hugo

I have so many childhood memories that it would be hard to list my favorite one. We lived a few hours apart so I would see my dad once a week and then a few weeks every summer. It may not seem like much time but he always made the most of it and he introduced me to so many different things. My memories of those times are vivid and I remember them well. I dragged him to the Disney animated version of Robin Hood four weeks in a row. I don't think I appreciated that until I was an adult. I think he bought me every GI Joe action figure that ever existed. We launched rockets in a field next to his house. He taught me to scuba dive in a pool . My first experience with fired chicken and coleslaw was on a rainy day sitting in his Avanti at a park. These may seem like insignificant memories and there are so many more, but they have been with me for the last forty or more years and I believe they inspired me to be the father I am today.

What can you say about someone as special as you? I had the privilege of being part of your life, enjoyed the silly jokes. Our time is over now. But the memories of my time with you will last forever. Thank you for all the knowledge that you taught me. I enjoyed spending the holidays with you. Just sitting around talking. Bob, you are dearly missed.

Best landlord we ever had. Great memories on Sommers Avenue. He was a kind and wonderful man!
