All of a sudden,life seems so fragile.Just moments ago,he was between us,loving and smiling.What wrong did he do,I ask GOD?Not for his returning to your beloved,but for the matter of how it happened.It kills to even know such a gem of a person was called back to heaven so fast,no words can describe the feeling of disgust and extreme sadness that was felt by family and friends when we learned of how it happened.
Gary Leon Robert was a man of the highest quality.As they say nobody is perfect,I shall always say.Gary was.A good son to his parents,a responsible brother to his sisters,a brilliant student,excellent footballer,a proper Christian,a wonderful friend and most of all an example of perfectionism to us humans.Humble and polite,never a word too much.Always with a charming smile,he just stole our hearts away.Quoting the words of the Father at his first wake service,"He was the living testimony of our Father,Jesus Christ" and I would say,that defined Gary the most.Though I am not a Christian and I dont know much about Christ,when I heard the Father say that,pardon me,but that is when I realized of the greatness of our Father Christ.That was the magic of Gary Leon Robert.
I remember the last I met him,it was a gloom Thursday morning and I was moody,walking to my class with my head down to avoid having to talk or smile to anyone,I heard my name being called out.When I tilted my head up,what I saw,made my day.Gary with a smile and hand stretched forward to say hello.It was then that I thought to myself of what a gem Gary is.To bother someone who doesnt bother you and smile at them as a gesture of kindness was such good nature of our beloved friend Gary.What happened that day and after made a difference to me,Gary made a difference,he showed to me and all of us in general,of how a human should be.
Though he is not with us today,his legacy remains.Such is his impact that today,all of us are living lives in a better way,smiling and being nicer to all regardless of our differences.His legacy truly remains in us,in that very smile we offer to each other.It is all Gary's. With all our love,care,admiration and prayers,we are made sure that your presence at this very moment is with Lord and there shall you remain till the end of time as this dirty,polluted,corrupted reality is left for the sinners.
REST IN PEACE
An angel on earth,of such halo you will have in heaven is a certain.GARY LEON ROBERT
