Robert earned his MBA and worked in accounting for the Atlanta Regional Commission. What Robert did outside of work is what will be remembered and treasured by most. He was not only a soccer fan (Atlanta United !) but gave his time and love of the sport to coach the 14-under Butts County Megs boys soccer team and the 8-under girls soccer team that his youngest daughter plays on. Robert stayed in shape by being committed to Crossfit, regularly up at 4 am to be working out by 5. Robert was also a football fan, being a native Atlantan he cheered for the Ga Bulldogs and the Atlanta Falcons but had decided the Detroit Lions were his favorite Thanksgiving Day team. A family trip to Panama City Beach or Walt Disney World was always a welcome adventure.
Robert's memory and legacy lives on through his wife Jennifer, daughters Sarah, Molly and Avery, sister Tammy (Chris) Saunders as well as his father Barry Harper.
