So sorry to learn of Robbies passing. He will be hugely missed by many. Thinking of you all at this sad time. RIP Robbie.
A respected and treasured member of the team, I admired how much loyalty and devotion he inspired in those he worked with more closely and for far, far, longer than I. I have already been missing discovering him arrive first of all on our shift in the wee hours and greeting him before our toil commenced; i am glad the last time i saw him wasn’t that long ago in town and that we exchanged a lovely and ‘i miss seeing you!’ kind of greeting. Take care of yourselves.
A real nice humble guy, You will be missed by us all Robbie RIP.
