Robert owned and operated Central Buick in Indianola for decades and enjoyed interactions with all of his friends and customers in the community. He was an active and involved member of the Indianola Church of Christ. He participated in several civic and social organizations over the years and was a regular at Rotary Club. He was a sports fanatic and loved just about every sport, cheering especially for his children, then grand- and great-grandchildren, along with his mighty Rebels. He was also an avid golfer and enjoyed playing with friends in many tournaments, particularly grateful for those who supported the Rob Hall Memorial Tournament each summer.
The family received friends one hour prior to services at the church.
