My mother called me, Robbie, Glenn Justice and Scott Baldwin the "fearsome foursome". Robbie was my room mate off and on for several years while we attended WTSU. He worked for Levi Strauss for a while, then he became an antique dealer. He was the original "American picker" and drove around attending auctions and flea markets, pulling a trailer and living out of his van. He eventually ended up getting into antique marbles because they were a lot easier to move than furniture and just as profitable. He was married four times and passed away in Oklahoma in 1996.
