At Christmas that year, his family moved to Springfield, Mo. In 1970, he graduated from Parkview High School; he attended Missouri State and Drury Universities, all in Springfield, Mo. In 1984, he moved to North Carolina, eventually moving to Moore county in the Pinehurst area in April, 1986
Rob was wed in Nov., 1998, and in Oct., 1999, was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in stage-4. Two weeks later he started aggressive chemotherapy at Duke Medical Center. Since the chemotherapy, he’s been in remission, but he had a mass in his head that damaged the frontal lobe of his brain doing away with some of his judgment skills. He lost the ability to know when his blood sugar is dropping too low, maybe before he could resolve it himself. They told him he shouldn’t be left alone for too long at a time. Rob has been at Pinehurst Healthcare since the end of Sept., 2001. He’d written about 10 poems, before he started writing again there in Sept., 2004. God placed Rob there for a reason; his gift for writing poetry has even saved one person’s life. After that, Rob knew why he was there. Rob has now written over 850 poems and is working on poetry for a fourth book.ver menos
