Aida and family...so sorry for Robert's passing. We have missed you all and will miss his wonderful, patient,loving, and fatherly attributes! He was one of my bishops while in Adams Ward and his sweet and loving stare from his eyes reaffirmed his love and care for me as he advised me and tenderly shared his testimony of our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. What a special man and witness of the Gospel of our Lord!! He performed my wedding ceremony there in the Los Angeles Stake Center for my family that are non-members and he did it with great joy. Thank you bishop Savage for your example of love and sacrific for Aida, your family, friends, and all others whose life you've blessed with your presence!

When I think about Robert I think about his kindness, strength of character and his faith but most importantly I think about the great love he had for his wife Aida (Cota)
He will be missed by so many!
I'm grateful for the gospel plan and the knowledge I have that he will be reunited with his family one day.
I love you Cotiña!

Hyrum created a playlist of songs - that remind him of his dad and that his dad liked. We'll be playing them at the funeral before and after the service.

Although I met Robert very briefly, I could feel of his strong connection to life and his family. God bless you all. It really was a privilege to meet you.

Dear friends and family,

My heart is warmed at the outpouring of love for Robert and especially Aida at this time.
You're all invited to add your comments, memories and photos to this site so we can all enjoy Robert a little longer. You can subscribe to get updates if you want to see when other people add content (click more).

While you're here, I wanted to share two articles about funerals in the time of Covid:
https://slate.com/technology/2020/08/praise-of-zoom-funeral.html
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/14/well/family/virtual-funeral-advice.html

While it's sad we can't all meet to grieve together, comfort one another and share long overdue hugs, I am so glad there is the ability to live stream so that those who cant attend may do so remotely. "There in spirit" will be a real and tangible thing.

I look forward to "seeing" you all. Please take care of yourselves. If you're considering travel for the funeral, know that the memorial will be brief and at the cemetery in an outdoor pavilion.

Dear Aida: I was very saddened to hear of your husbands passing. He was a wonderful man, and a great Bishop. He is well remembered by the older members of the Wilshire and Adams Wards in the Los Angeles Stake. [email protected].
