They were blessed with four children, and in the early 90’s uprooted and establish their life in Tucson, Arizona. During his children’s childhood and adolescent years he became a well know coach and supporter in the local Tucson football and baseball communities where his support and guidance to players and peers was greatly respected and appreciated.

Robert was always a provider, hard worker, and an extremely determined and dedicated husband and father. He worked incredibly hard to establish his career and reputation as a successful High Voltage Electrician, and took so much pride in his work and the working relationships he built with his clients. With the skills and experience he learned, he achieved his goal to own and operate his own business in the electrical industry.

Robert enjoyed hosting, grilling/bbqing for his family and friends, and the many Miller Lite,7 and 7’s, and wine which were his go-to spirits while watching his favorite football team- The RAIDERS. He was very fortunate to be able to take family and friends on memorable vacations to Hawaii, which he loved dearly and shared his appreciation for the Hawaiian culture with many.

Robert will always be remembered as the rock and core of The Hernandez Family. His dedication, strength, values, integrity, and beliefs that he demonstrated will forever live through his family and friends, and will allow his spirit to live on in our hearts.
