In Memory of Robert N. Sheffield (1939 – 2010)

Rob Sheffield is truly missed by everyone at Motley’s. Rob began working with the Motley’s Industrial Division in 2002, and he immediately became a favorite with customers and co-workers alike. His personal life was filled with stories of his service to others and commitment to religion, and we too experienced the benefit of such dedication. The world is a better place thanks to Rob, and so is each person who had a chance to know him. |
