Robert was born in Shreveport, LA on April 29, 1963, to the proud parents, Robert & Barbara Hightower.

An additional career that Robert went on to succeed in was within the local steel manufacturing industry, having had extensive opportunities at both: Beaird Industries and Steele Forgings. So, you can take the Man out of the 'Oil Patch' but you can never take the 'Oil Patch' out of the Man. Many have stated: "He had an Oil Field Heart".
Robert was a lifetime member of Bell Park Baptist Church. Robert was a wonderful father and a devoted loving husband. To his family and friends, he was considered to be the most amazing man in the world, who loved and cherished his family first and foremost. Words can not express, how much, Robert loved his family and his family loved him!

Left to cherish his memory are: his loving wife of almost 33 years, Stormy Hightower; son, Corey Wallace and fiancé Heather; daughter, Kaitlyn Hightower and fiancé Hunter; special children, Tammy Gullo & family, Kristin Fillingim & family.
