Robert Paul Goebel

A beautiful young man with sparkling blue eyes and unruly blonde curls. As a child, he was outgoing, capturing everyone with his silliness and charming good looks. A caring and kind person, Robbie's hugs came freely and were always warm and sincere.

His sense of style was unique. He wasn’t afraid to be different, and independent…always a trendsetter. Rob was always so good at every hobby he tried..an extremely talented skateboarder, BMX rider, snowboarder, fisherman and welder. He loved spending time outdoors, fly fishing, salmon fishing, pond fishing - any kind, actually. He was content on the water and relished perfecting technique and the satisfaction of a well-earned catch. He enjoyed live music festivals and the Grateful Dead, too.

I do and will always miss everything about my youngest son. Life feels incomplete, off-balance now.

Without stigma and shame. Robbie was much more than he gave himself credit for. He gave of himself freely and would want to be remembered for his love, loyalty and passion for free-thinking and living according to his terms.
