A Rootsweb listing has Robert and his wife Lena buried at Calvary Cemetery. That is incorrect. They are buried in a plot that is quite near the northern most border of Oak Ridge that abuts Calvary with no fence or markings to distinguish the two cemeteries. Their location is confirmed by Oak Ridge cemetery records and plot map as well as obituaries.
