Robert had many favorite pastimes, he loved watching the sunrise over Lake Monona. Celebrating the Fourth of July, Beaver Dam Lake Days and the Memorial Day parades with his family and friends were very special to him. He loved spending time playing with his goddaughter and niece Taylor. He also enjoyed time with his bird Sonny. Robert was very talented with spray painting and even took part in painting a special bike being made at Trek that went to Lance Armstrong. He enjoyed a great night at the races whether it was spent watching or helping out with friends in the pits. He loved just spending time chatting with a neighbor or tinkering in the garage. Robert could fix almost anything he put his hands on, especially computers. No matter what he was doing he was there with a helping hand, a big smile and a heart of gold.
