    I first talked with Robert back in 2019, he was a talented individual who would shoot me a message to chit-chat any time, we would always have a laugh and a joke by taking digs at each other in all good fun, thanks for inspiring me and helping me better my craft.
    My dearest condolences to the whole family, stay strong for him. Rest Easy.

    I just heard. Talked with him first about 10 years ago now. Small talks back and forth. A lot of laughs on my end. I hope he had a laugh or two along with me. He will be dearly missed even with the short interactions we had. It always felt like talking to an old friend.

    Even though I never got the chance to meet Robert in person, I enjoyed the time we did share online. His creativity inspired me more than a few times, and his memory will continue to do so going forward. Rest well, dude.

    I only knew Robert for seven months, through online means. But I can say honestly that he was a wonderful person, and that he really impacted my life in a wonderful way. I hope wherever he is, he’s finally resting comfortably… and that I’ll see him in the next life

    I have known Robert for over a decade and I'll always remember him as a great friend. My heart and thoughts go out to his family, friends, and Ruby who must be missing him so much

    I just wanted to wish Mr, and Ms Elkins well. I was very good friends with Robert, we had a bit of a falling out, but I always wished the best for him. I think he mentioned his friend "Dusty" Before, but we would help each other out all the time. He was such a sweet soul, albeit misguided sometimes. Please feel free to reach out.

    Dearest Robert,
    I may have only known you personally for a little over a year but I got to know you a lot. I am absolutely devastated to learn that I'll never be able to talk to you again. You were such a talent and a personality.
    I miss you dearly and I love you. You deserved so much better. xx

    Robert always took time out of his day for me, no matter how stupid my problems were, or how much of his own issues were weighing on him. I’ve never had a friend that was as there for me as he was, and I don’t think I will again now that he’s passed. He was so genuine no matter what, and I’m gonna miss that conviction, honesty, and love.

    Robert was a wonderful friend to me and I'll always cherish the memories he's left me with. To the parents, your son was so special, but anyone who was around him already knew that.

    I was shaken when i heard you had passed. I hadnt known until two days ago when i checked you page and seen the outpouring from friends alike. You were like a twin, sharing the same likes, always finding a way to cheer me up with i was down, and always finding ways to make me laugh. Like any siblings, we may have had a few things we never saw eye to eye with, but what we did, overshadowed the negatives. We were both fans of Metroid, and was that became our bond. We became closer over the bond we forged between our characters. And whenever i could, i would always try to help out the best i could. I really wish i had gotten a chance to meet you in person, and try all the recipes you were telling me about. But...maybe in the next life, if we ever meet again, we can get a chance to make them. I feel like ive lost a part of me, not just a friend, but someone i truly loved and cared about. Even if you didnt want me to, i still cared about your health, because in the end, you were my close friend. I love you, and i will always love you, in life, and in death. Goodbye my friend. May your spirit watch over us in death, and your loved ones safe. And i hope, we can all laugh and talk with each other again like we did 14 years ago.
