Born the son of Robert E. Sr. and Anna Rose (nee Lowe) in Miami, Florida, he would come to settle in Glen Burnie for the balance of his years.

Robert grew up in a difficult childhood but this did not stop him from having such a joy for life and his crazy personality made him an outstanding, caring individual.  He had a love for animals and cared for numerous dogs during his lifetime and currently has an Alaskan Husky named "Buddy" who has been his companion, as well as an African Grey Parrot named Rosie.
