Son,   thank you for watching over your baby sister Brittney we have a baby boy 7 pounds 14 ounces. His name is River,  He would have loved you so much and I promise I will tell him all about you as he grows up.  I Miss You.

Son its been 5 years 5 months since you left me to go to a better place, It is still very hard for me to open the memories we had together in the past but I still cry and hear you call out to me at night this will never stop until my day comes to leave this awful world, and when I leave here I'm busted thru those gates to heaven so i can see you again.  I am here tonight to tell you about your new nephew that is about to be born thats right robert, this time its your baby sister brittney, I know in my heart that God is trying to fill this hole in my heart that was created when you were took away but that hole will never be filled until we meet again in heaven I love and miss you so much it hurts. I wont say goodby but will say see you soon son.

Love Mommy

 My Dearest Son Robert another year gone so fast, this marks year number 5 since I last held your hand "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY"! I Miss you more now than ever.  no one will ever know how painful it is for me to go on with my life without you.  I had a dream not long ago you were chasing me through the house with that damn snake of yours, you were laughing so hard and when I woke up I wanted so bad to close my eyes and go back to sleep so you could scare me again with your snake. 

Missing you Deeply my son.

Love Mommy

I remember the day I left workn 6 months before you past I picked to up from charleston SC hospital to bring you home and on our way home you handed me a book marker that you had purchased in the hospital and this is what it said ,

Thank You Mother
Thank you for the sacrifices you have made for me, thank you for all you've done for me.  I know there have been times that ha it not been for your unselfishness, my life would have been different: not as balanced, not as happy.

Thank you for giving me life.  Thank you for your example.  Thank you for being my mother. I wouldn't trade you even if I could.  I love you so Much.

Robert  I look at this book marker everyday and think of you I Love you son and miss you deeply.

My condolences, as feelings of pain and bitterness become unbearable. It is my desire to convey a comforting thought based on the Holy Scriptures

     I remember Robert full of life and only know him this way as why I do not like to see any one I love breathless in a casket This is a small story of my time with.....I remember Robert staying with me at my home In Virginia, wanting to go fishing. He really wanted to fish so bad that day he said...Uncle Mike!!!! Can I please use your canoe and Fish in the pond. (pond was next to my property) Okay Robert I said with a smile as I noticed his energy was so fixed on wanting to launch my canoe and throw a line in that POND..  We launched an Old Town 15' 8  blue Canoe into that pond and soon he was like Columbus on the OCEAN, FEARLESS. He then casted his fishing rod out at looked over his shoulder at me..... I am OK...with a smile that only you would have had to witness to see....He had his life vest on with a GRIN and casted his pole like a free spirit on an open water fisherman! I retreated away and went away with confidence he was all too cool. .......Within 2 minutes after my visual from him...he screams out the words....UNKLE MIKE....UNKLE MIKE....(I was thinking the worst, as he has flipped the canoe....dropped off into the pond). I was totally freaked out and run up the DAM looking across the pond to at my amase..... was ....ROBERT standing up in a frickin canoe in a POND with a fishing pole and of course a Hugh BASS he had caught on the end.... yea man....he had caught a big small mouth BASS and a BIG'UN.... he did standing up yelling UNCLE MIKE.... I GOT ONE....I quickly yelled out....BOY....you set down now NOW..... worried about his unstable stance standing up in a canoe in a pond deeper that he.....and also noticing that BIG BASS he had pulling the canoe ...yea man sat down..... I yelled out....He quickly set down with his fishing pole in hand never missing a lick reeling in that BASS... His GRIN was ever more bigger and he was not in any danger as well.....His excitement is something I have and will never ever forget...This is what I know Robert as and have never known or seen him in his life without a grin....I have not ever been able to face his pain as he did as he is one of the bravest men I have ever known.........

 I never seen Robert ever in anything but a SMILE and this is what I will always remember him as... One of the Bravest Men I have ever known....

Know one knows my tears I have carried thinking about him and this moment I have written here as I have many more.... Thanks you Robert Lilly for being a PLUS in my life an set an example of strength.
   Your friend and Uncle MIKE forever.

Robert K. Lilly II
