Robert was always there for others and was a mentor to many. Dad enjoyed watching wildlife from the deck on his house, or on his four-wheeler through the woods. Overseeing the garden...from all the crooked rows being planted to its harvest, was a job Dad took with a smile. Above all, what he enjoyed the most was loving and cherishing his family and putting their needs first.

He was born March 30, 1944, in Pleasant Hill, Tennessee, to Claude L. and Lula M. (Bolen) Haston.

On November 28, 1968, in Stroh, he married Jo Ann Terry. She survives in LaGrange.
