This is the back of the stone
We knew we wanted from Star Wars - Rob had the chicken pox when he was 4 and we had just gotten a VCR. He watched that movie over and over and over til I was sick of it. One day I even heard him repeating word for word parts of it. From that time until he died he was one of the biggest Star War fans. He was named Robert for Carl's dad and Dale from my dad's middle name so his aunt dubbed him R2D2 from the beginning. But Yoda was always his favorite character.
The young man at the monument place took this Yoda from a coloring book page I had and made it into one he could sandblast on there. We could have had an etching made but we liked this so much better.
Rob was a drummer who marched to his own drum so I know he would have liked this stone. And to us it says so much about him.
We love and miss you, my son.
