My sincere condolences on your loss and our communal loss of a kind, community minded, joyful man. I had the opportunity to work with Robert many years ago through Manitoba Choral Association. He was dedicated to serving the choral community. He will be missed.

We all know that Robert's life was inextricably intertwined with music. His highly musical talent and musicianship coupled with his superior skills as both, pianist and organist created an on-going stream of beautiful experiences for so many people. He was a supportive and sensitive accompanist who consistently extended a gentle hand to all who collaborated with him. And then, the beautiful lyric tenor voice that graced Canzona's tenor section for 25 years. For all this we are deeply grateful for having had the privilege to know and work with him. He suffered so much in recent years, still, he was always hopeful for a solution; and through it all his wit and humour was always near the surface. Thank you, Robert, for the wonderful memories. Henry and Erika Engbrecht

Praying for the family. I will remember Robert fondly, at a young age our families would get together . He would sometimes be playing either one of his favorite instruments, was always a little jealous of his natural abilities with music. Although, we did not get together much any more, but I loved his genuine heart with everyone he would meet. Your influence in others will be missed. Thank you Robert, lv w.h. Knowing, you are with jesus,and playing His music now gives me Great Joy!

I was blessed to have become a close friend with Robert during our music and theology studies at MBBC. He had a sharp wit and open heart. It was always awe inspiring to hear him play the organ and it would give me shivers every time. I know my friend you are in heaven making that organ growl in worship. My heart goes out to your family who always welcomed me into their hearts and home when I lived in Winnipeg. Till we meet again. Lynn Wanamaker

I remember you and Robert at the farm. As a kid I loved when you came out to visit. The laughter coming from the dining room rivalled Robert’s organ playing. Love Erica (Robert’s niece)

I got to know Robert when i was the pianist and president of the German Choir of Winnipeg / Deutscher Chor Winnipeg from 2013 to 2018 and at that time the German Choir joined the MCA and we were involved the Senior Sings at Sturgeon Creek United church and in Winkler. Robert was like the Energizer bunny at MCA events. He always was busy greeting people and was great at remembering names. Condolences to the family. Reinhold Heinrich Pauls former President of the Grrman Choir

I haven’t seen Robert for many years but the memory I always have is of a kind soul. Incredibly musically talented Robert was my inspiration for learning to play piano after University. My first years in Steinbach were not easy ‘being foreign’ but that never mattered to Robert, he was kind and accepting. I am so sorry for your loss.
