My heart and prayers are with Robert’s family. What a kind and gentle soul Robert is - a blessing to all who knew him.

I am so sorry for your loss, Hunter. He seemed like an incredible person.  Sincerely, Terry Watkins

So the story goes like this…. I received a call from Hunter and she tells me about Robert.  So I make sure that I go by Jackson Hospital the next day. We began our conversation with the usual pleasantries and he tells me that he has an idea about how he wants to approach the situation. I then in turn performed my assessment and then I sat down. He tells me that he rather just have his leg amputated. I in turn say this to him, “ I’m supposed to tell you that the work that was requested of me to do, I’m sure I can do it. “ I am supposed to tell you that this will heal but I’m sure that several weeks from now we are going to arrive right back here. So I asked him who his surgeon was and he told me. I told him to state with absolute authority that he wanted to have it done. Several months later I get another call from Mary and I visited him again but this time he told me he wanted my assistance. I obliged him and that was the beginning of our brief but wonderful relationship. I’m going to miss my friend and the conversations we had. I know he’s in a better place now and he’s inspiring me to resurrect an idea I had years ago. 
Robert my friend initially , my brother secondly and my inspiration finally.

Robert was a true explorer of life, always seeking new horizons, and never shying away from the unknown. His adventurous soul was a beacon of inspiration to all who had the privilege of knowing him. 

I met Robert nearly 20 years ago and  he has always been an inspiration of a loving husband and partner to Margaret. We are fortunate that you were in our life 

Lots of Love
Pieter and Vionette 

Robert, a JEWEL with a big heart and great personality, will be missed. Always a learning experience when he’s around ☺️. He taught me how to better use my iPhone camera or cook a steak in a skillet, etc. William and I are Blessed to have shared a chapter of his life. May God provide the strength and support needed to Margaret and Family. 🥰

Robert was one of the most interesting people that I’ve known in my lifetime. To wit, he and I built this sandbox from a “diagram.” We had to ditch the poorly worded diagram, and I basically held the lumber and fetched his water. :) My children enjoyed this sandbox for years. He also taught me how to cook a delicious steak on an iron skillet. I will miss you and will continue to pray for the Proctor and Frazer families. 

You are missed, Robert. Our sincerest condolences to Margaret and your family.

My condolences to Robert’s family. Always enjoyed his positivity and approach to everything. 🙏🏾

From Vespas to Airstreams and everything in between Roberto was a presence with a subtle grace, quiet strength, rugged good looks and an analytical mind that could figure out anything, including a jib camera and the NY Times crossword puzzles. He was curious and smart and in his element at the beach.  I will miss him very much. He has earned this rest; may it be in lasting peace. Sending love and prayers for strength.

I was so lucky to have known Robert.The last time I saw him, he was out at my home.He photographed all of Margaret’s beautiful designs. He had quite the eye for an artist.He and Margaret supported each other throughout the years.We will miss you Robert🙏The Frazers are our family and so strong.
