Robert was one of the great young men that I was fortune to have known when was a young Scout Master. I also was fortunate to have him as a I employee for a year. Dependable, quick to learn, honest and hardworking are just a few of his character traits. He was taught by goodly parent's and was kind friend. Robert, you will be missed!!

I have a lot of great memories growing up with Robert. He always had an energy about him, doing everything to the extreme. He was absolutely CRAZY on a pair of skis. There was never any fear, just High Speeds and Big Air! He also had an uncanny resemblance to the Russian fighter Ivan Drago in Rocky IV, (which we also often referred to him as).
You will be missed Robert (aka Ivan)! Thank you for all the fun.
We were so blessed to have Robert and Jack and Irina Reeves family in our Ward when boundary permit and Stake all the time. Fantastic Family!!! Russell enjoyed being a Home Teacher to the family. Our prayers will be with all of you! Love Russell and Alice Ann Young
I have known Rob his whole life . He was a great business partner and friend. He was all about family. His family came first. He will be greatly missed., by all who new and associated with him.
Rob-
Thanks for always being there! Growing up together, you were always available for whatever game or sport we were playing. If your brother Scott and I needed another player be it football, basketball or baseball, you were always on!
When we would snowmobile together, you drove me nuts! We were always looking for Rob! You would be off in the trees somewhere where we could not see you. From jumping off the Big Drift to always being stuck--the mountain never won with you! You would go in some forsaken hole and get stuck, we would help you get out and then, sure enough, you would go right back in the same hole just to get stuck AGAIN. Do you remember the night we got in the argument on which direction it was back to Kim's cabin? Glad I had a compass with me to sort that one out!
Do you remember the snowmobile tilt trailers we built out of our garage? I still have mine and use it every now and again. It has almost rusted away.
When snow skiing you were always on to the steepest run or the biggest jump. You always had the guts to hit any obstacle full steam (While I was always breaking out or slowing down before the launch) Do you remember the time we watched another skier go under the rope(a closed run) just below Bishops Bowl just to watch the face give way in an avalanche? What a blessing that we saw his black cap once the snow dust settled. All of us were shaking so bad by the time we were able to get him unburied, it took all of us a bit to get back to skiing.
Holli and I were so impressed when you showed up at the hospital when Kelsea was born. It was so cool to see you walk in the hospital room unannounced with your motorcycle helmet in hand just to congratulate us and make sure we didn't need anything.
When I walked passed our electrical panel at our home last week, I thought of that cold November night that you stayed very late helping me set it up properly so we could start running wire. You worked with me several nights late to get our home wired. We are so thankful you were willing to help us wire our entire home.
Rob- you are an awesome man and a good friend. We have all been blessed to have you in our lives. Until we meet again-

Robert was such a great friend. I have many awesome memories of scouting adventures , playing basketball, and him living life to the fullest. Even through I was younger than he was by quite a few years and a crazy teenager he would always invite me to play basketball with him and some of his family members at the church. He was such a great example of living life to the fullest while living the gospel standards. One time he even convinced a scout camp worker to allow us - a group of inexperienced climbers and repellers (except Robert) to descend commando - facing down to the ground. It was exhilarating and fun. Robert lived with so much joy and it rubbed off on everyone. Robert was an incredible man and friend. He will be greatly missed.
Rob was always a good friend to me, he was never judgemental, and was always there to help. On a youth outing we were hiking and swimming the subway in Southern Utah. I had an injured arm at the time, but wanted to trek the subway anyway. Rob said he would keep an eye on me, and that I should be able to do the hike/swim. At one point, as I was swimming through a tight spot ( with one arm), my feet went down, and I was going with them. I came very close to breathing in water ( not good), but when I bobbed up, I yelled for help. Rob jumped in and pulled me to safety. He didn't hesitate in any way, which literally saved me. That is just who Rob was, he was always ready to help . He will be missed.
