For all of the Finch family and loved ones, Annie Lois Finch-Johnson, Michele F Clay, Sabrena Johnson and Mark Johnson and all, we offer our deepest sympathy to all. We will miss the voice of Robert and his funny way of saying things. I remember when we asked Robert a question, or to explain something, he would answer by almost writing a small book; he was going to tell you every detail and then some. We often joked and laughed about that.

And, to Robert's wife Alfreda and children, thank you for the love and care you gave to my brother Robert, and thanks to his sister Henrietta for all that you have done too.

When speaking about death, Robert would often say "you're born with a expiration date stamped on your behind. And for sure that date is coming."

And, to Robert's wife Alfreda and children, thank you for the love and care you gave to my brother Robert, and thanks to my sister Henrietta for all that you have done too.
