********* I Love You Baby ********
Robbie,
Baby you were my frist love and my bestfriend,I love you with all my heart and soul.When I was sad you knew how to make me smile, all I would have to see is you smile and it lit up the room, you were so cute it was hard for me not to giggle.I Love You so much and I always will. You use to tell me that no matter what happens you would always be there for me,through thick and thin (you use to say).We never use to let each other get out of our sight for to long,as soon as we got off work we were with each other but that what true love does to you.When you worked at Rick's I would stay there with you, the day I will never forget is the day you got me up on the roof since I told you I could do your job and I actually roofed and you said that you were so proud of me and that you knew if I put my mind to it I could do or be anything I wanted. You were my whole life and always will be.I just dont knew how I'm gonna wake up every morning knowing your not gonna be right next to me when I wake up.I will treasure our years for the rest of my life.You were my bestfriend, my hero, and the light that keep me going through the good and bad.My love for you will always stay strong no matter what, through thick and thin.
I know you'll be watching me from heaven,but I just wish I could hug and kiss you one last time but I know you'll come to me in my dreams so I might get my chance.
I love you baby with all my heart and soul : Lindsey Beth ( as you use to call me )

Few times in life do you get a chance to have a friend as unique as Robbie. You are one of a kind Robbie. You will be missed. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.
