    My deepest condolences to the Robertson family. Our families have been friends for my entire life. My beloved “Uncle John” has always been my champion and cheerleader. John, Cecil, Syl and Ben are together again. Their love, guidance and leadership served our families so well. To my Uncle John, I am forever grateful and forever blessed by your presence in my life.
