Not sure what to say?





Beautiful friends, Jan and Martin, I am so sorry to learn of your loss. You all have a wonderful family and Robert will be in your hearts forever.
It is wonderful that if he was to be taken by God, to be with him, Robert had the day of being beside his dad and they did the things they both enjoyed together.He wouldn't have had it any other way!
God loves all of the Jenkins family and I do too!
So sorry to be so far away, but have all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
