Dear Debbie and Family
We just viewed Robert's Celebration of Life on live streaming as we are sorry we were unable to attend.  You gave him a wonderful  tribute.  He truly was a remarkable man,  full of life and adventure.  Robert will be dearly missed.
Please accept our condolences now and  during your difficult times.
With sympathy from Loreen and Robert Kabanuk

To the Zukiwsky family,

My deepest condolences, I remember first meeting Robert back in junior high school, I will always remember the incredible art that he could so easily doodle or how he would always crush me at video games. I remember back in high school, Robert had the spontaneous idea to go skydiving. So a group of friends took his thunderbird out to the airport, the entire time he stayed cool and confident. I don't think I would've jumped out of that plane if it wasn't for Robert. He was so courageous, and he was able to bring that courage out of everybody he met. He was down to try anything, rest in peace Robert.

To Robert's family:

I am so so sorry for your loss. 
Although I don't know Robert very well, I have been his tenant for 2 years, surrounded by his carefully decorated home and well-crafted garden, I know he is a wonderful person who loved and cared about everything and everyone around him. He has been a wonderful landlord for us and also a great inspiration for us as artists. 
Please take good care of yourselves, my heart is with you in this difficult time. 

My deepest condolences,
Zora Wang

We have so many awesome memories of all the boys at the lake when they were little. They spent hours making forts , playing  in the water and in the forest. We still laugh thinking about the night we all wandered around with flashlights, searching for them in the bushes late at night.. So sorry we won’t be there to support  you tomorrow, but know that our hearts and thoughts will be with all of you as we participate on line.
