    I was surprised to hear of Robert’s passing. It seems like I just saw him driving in town. I truly enjoyed our visits and admired his love and devotion to Patty and the pride he had for his sons. I will miss our conversations. May God comfort you during this time.

    In loving memory of Robert Korene Schwarz, who I will miss dearly! Robert was the absolute best to get me in lots of trouble when I was little. We had dozens of baby bunnies thanks to Robert convincing me the bunnies were lonely and needed to play with each other. And I got in trouble when he convinced me the horses would love to eat the bad apples under the trees in the orchard, so I let them out if the pasture and then we ended up with 12 drunk, lose horses. Both time my dad was mad at me until I told him why I did it and then he would just smile and giggle. My punishment was to be taken to Co-Op to hang out with Robert (which was always fun!). God bless him! He will be missed!❤
