Rob wuz my 1st cousin and Ive known him all my life. I dont know why something like this happened 2 a person as loving and caring as Rob. I do know that it seems unreal and it feels like Im just having this horrible nightmare that I cant wake up from. Seeing Rob laying in that casket brought back every smile, every hug, every fight, every horse ride, every four-wheeler ride, everytime Id watched Chi (his dog), every memory that I have of him. Rob is truly one of the sweetest people that you'll ever meet. He never met a stranger. The last time I saw him he gave me this bracelet that he said was for good luck. Now Im wearing mine and the one he died in. I loved that boy with all my heart and he had such a big future ahead. He was leaving in May to join the airforce and serve his country. I pray that God has mercy on the souls of the people that did this to him, becuase to kill a person that would give all that he had to a friend like Lil Rob would...man u have nothing but the worst of the worst coming for you...Watch over me and walk beside me Rob...they say its best 2 move on, but Im never letting you go...R.I.P. Rob...ur fav lil cuz (as u told me) loves u!!!

I met Rob my freshmen year of high school. I will never forget his smile, one of the most beautiful smiles out there. More recently I had seen Rob a couple of times at Fox and Hound where I bartend and he always asked for a Corona. I will drink one for him...He will truly be missed... Rest in Peace

Man This is my homie since i came to roland grise to Hoggard. we used to chill and party so much and i can't understand why some little nigga would take my boy life i just don't understand. who ever did dis will rott. My thoughts goes out to da fam and da fam please keep ya head up just remember how rob was just dat person dat will just be silly just for no reason at all. pop bottles for us on earth Rob and we love you here and we all know dat you are in a better place -One love- mark hawes

Rob was the type of guy you can always trust,he was very responsible.If anyone hung out with him you can feel safe because Lil Rob was a safe kid.He took my brother horse back riding for the first time and when they came back all they could do was smile because it was the 1st time my brother been horse riding.Rob was my next door neighbor very sweet kind responsible and now remembered. RIP Lil Rob see you in the big place in the sky!!!!!!

I am in complete shock. I have known rob for a while now, and I can not imagine how anyone could do anything this cruel to him. He was always by far the sweetest person to everyone. And for me he was a true friend and coworker. No matter what was going on Rob always found a way to make me smile and laugh, he was the ideal person to look up to and respect. And he definitely had a positive outlook on things. I also had anatomy class with rob last semester- which is an extremely hard class. I'm in the second part of the class now and whenever I saw Rob at work he'd always ask how I was doing in the class, and continued to encourage me to keep working hard. He genuinely cared about his friends, and I am so sorry to hear that he was taken from all of us. I will greatly miss him. And him as well as his family and friends are continually in my prayers. RIP Rob- i'll always remember you for the amazing person you were! Love always, Heather Anderson

I was heart broken when I received the news of Rob's death. We basically grew up together. From Winter Park to Roland Grise to Hoggard. Living in Westchester riding bikes and jumping on his trampoline! Such a sweet person. He definitely did NOT deserve this. He was not into anything that would put him in harm's way. My thoughts and prayers go out to his Mom, Dad, sisters, and his entire family. I am so sorry for your lost...

I have known Little Rob for the past 15years. I was able to watch him grow from the little boy who everyone called mama's boy to the loving, kind young man he was. He had a deep passion for horses, 4wheelers, friends, family and most of all a deep love and wonderful relationship with his mother and father. My children and every child I knew couldn't wait to see "Little Rob". He always took time with them and that was the first thing he'd ask me about if I was without them. The impact of his death will be especially hard for the children too. I have fond memories of him and can smile when I think of him. It will be very hard to see CJ, Danny, and Eugene without our Little Rob. I will miss the beautiful smile and warm hugs I received everytime I saw him. My prayers are with the Marshalls. The East Coast Families Past and Present have lost a beautiful son. RIP Little Rob

My thoughts and prayers go out to Lil Rob's family I've known him for about 8 years now and he was always funny and had a smile on his face. Getting to know him I learned he had a love for horses and was just a laid back guy. I am so sorry this had to happen to him but now he's in gods hands. RIP Rob

I have known Rob since he was at Winter Park Elm. School. He has always been a good boy. I know that as we grow we all make mistakes, but there are no mistakes worth loosing your life. I am heartbroken that someone as kindhearted as Rob lost his life do to senseless violence. I will keep all that knew and loved Rob in my prayers. R.I.P. Lil Rob...You will be missed!!

Rob was such a sweet and great guy!..its horrible that something like this would happen to him of all people. As long as i have known him he never had any troubles with anyone. It just makes no sense. I am going to miss all our fun times together but the memories will live on. I know you will live in the sky! R.I.P baby boy..

Sorry to hear of another young person being killed downtown. I know of this boy through family and friends that knew him from work. Apparently he was a nice kid to them but he did appear at a party with a gun and pulled it on a white boy that was in a slight altercation with a friends girlfriend. These kids have got to learn that guns kill one way or another. I feel sorry for the family but i doubt they knew about his behavior. They seem like decent people trying to raise a decent kid in a screwed up world.

Rob was one of the most kind hearted kids I have ever known. He will be missed badly by a lot of people!

Its pretty sad to see such a well respected friend die like this. What is wrong with this community. He always had a smile on his face and was just enjoyable to be around. I am scared i have a newborn baby that i am going to raise in this town. Makes me really think hard if i want to stay here. Its a sad day and Robert will be missed. People of wilmington really need to smarten up and enjoy life. Stop the killing!!! Please.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Marshall Family. The young mans who's life was taken was a great guy, with a loving family. My parents worked with this parents. It's ashame what this world is coming to with so many shootings. I know in my heart he was at the wrong place at the wrong time and doing no wrong. I hope there is some justice to the person who did this to Rob!
