I grew up next door o the Robson family, Donnie, Robbie and Brian were like brothers to me. Making sure we didn’t get into too much mischief and were the boys that ran Nebraska Avenue. Their mom and dad were so good to me and i am grateful to have grown up in York, Nebraska next door to the Robson boys. My thoughts ad prayers are with your family as you navigate the days and weeks ahead. Rest in peace Robbie!
