He became a part of the "family of God." Robert graduated from Zion Bible Institute in R.I., and met his wife Miriam while playing the trumpet at her father's church. Robert moved back to Cortland to assist at Parkside Assembly of God. Many weekends Robert and his family would travel to many country churches to minister in word and song. Later in life, he could be found in his scooter visiting patients in the hospital and nursing homes. While in the nursing home these past years, he continued to minister to other residents and families. Bob was a faithful servant to his Lord and Savior till the end.
