Robert was such a good man and great father. As a friend of Courtney’s he always made me feel as if I was one of his own when we were around each other as well as my son. He will be missed so very much, but he will never be forgotten.
Robert was the kind of man that would give anything to help anyone. His daughters were definitely his world. He loved being with them and doing all things with them. He will forever be missed! I hope and pray his family gets through this difficult time and knows how much he loved them!
So sorry for your loss…just reflect on all the good laughs we had during our time as a hockey family! Sending hugs to you ladies.
My heart goes out to the family – especially Denise and the girls, Brittany and Courtney. May you feel God’s peace during this difficult time. I am here for you ladies.
My heart aches for all the family but huge hugs and lots of prayers for Denise and the girls Courtney and Brittany. If I can help you in any way, just let me know.
Courtney, Brittany & Denise,
So sorry to hear this news. You ladies are in the Schuering family’s thoughts and prayers. He was one of a kind and would do anything . Many softball and Blue Springs High School memoties and stories. If there is anything I can do for you, let me know.
Denise, my good friend, Brittany & Courtney, My sincere condolences. I am saddened to hear of your sudden loss. My heart is with all of you in this time of sorrow. Love, Susanne Alonzo
I wanted to leave my condolences here since I won’t be able to attend the services. Robert was such a great father to Brittany and Courtney. I know his amazing, goofy, and caring personality will live on in so many’s memories. Wishing the Giffen family healing through this extraordinarily sad time.
I am so sorry that Robert is no longer here with you girls. I know that you three were the joy of his life and he loved you with all his heart. Robert was a very kind man who knew no stranger; he could joke, laugh and have a conversation with everyone. He left a legacy of friendliness, love and a goofy spirit that attracted everyone who was around. He will be greatly missed.
So sorry to hear , he was a good man and friend
Robert was such a kind man, always looking out for everybody else.
Robert was one of the most genuine, funny, kind and caring people I’ve ever met. He was always so willing to do anything for anyone. I am so grateful I was able to have Robert in my life. Whether it was going to Cold Stone, Chipotle, Mizzou Dad’s weekends, his job sites, and much more, I always had the best time with him. To know Robert was to love and appreciate him. I know he loved his family very much and is so proud of them. He will be missed by many. Sending love and prayers.
