  "We Draw Strength From Each Other" In my whole time of digging through the rubble of what was the twin towers, all that was on my mind was how do I honor my fallen brothers. One night I found an artist work-site. I left a message there needing an artist to create a memorial. Most importantly, the ar

  tist, to me, had to "get it". There are not to many people out there that "get it". Thank you Robert for getting it and creating a simply moving and brilliant tribute to my brothers who were lost at Engine Company 6. Your respect for the project and toward our families will Never Be Forgotten. Nor will your generosity. I am proud to call you a brother...

  Robert did an outstanding job on the sculpture for my husband to be. He is very passionate about his work and his sculpting abilities are very life like and turned out to look exactly like my Fiance. (Which he was able to do from pictures alone!) Robert was easy to talk to and was very communicative

  throughout the entire process. Friends and co-workers who have seen the bronze sculpture want Roberts contact information as it has inspired them to have some projects done by him as well. A very pleased customer.

  Robert spent many years observing and absorbing the work of the great master, Laszlo Ispanky – when he was tapped to create a bronze memorial for firefighters who perished on 9/11, I watched in wonder as he transformed the clay and wire of his master into his own beautiful and lasting tribute. Rober

  t worked with care, taking weeks to converse with members of the families he was creating the tribute for. As a father, I was overcome with his sensitivity – even capturing the fingerprints of one of the sons in the hand of his father Robert had sculpted. When my own wife passed away, I was compelled to ask him to make a bronze memorial for her headstone. Robert treated me professionally. He stuck to his timelines and he let me have input. When we unveiled the masterpiece, there wasn't a dry eye. Robert created a beautiful, lasting tribute to my lifelong love, my wife.

  I am part of a volunteer committee which has spent the past six years planning, designing and fundraising to create a Veterans Monument in our community Rob's creativity and heart have come through wholeheartedly over the five years I have know him and he has worked on this project. We found Rob rig

  ht in our own community, even though his work is known internationally. His 4 by 6' three-dimensional bronze plaque honoring four firefighters from Engine 6 who gave their lives on 9-11 was captivating in a photo and even more mesmerizing in person. When he told me the story of placing the fingerprints of the son of one of the lost firefighters on the palm of his father's hand, it brought tears to my eyes. I feel the same way about our eagle we just christened "Freda" - short for Freedom. Its origins mean "beautiful and beloved" and "peace". Rob has been generous and supportive throughout this long process of bringing the monument and Freda to reality.
