Robert McKenzie Obituary

thanks for all the laughs and friendship. miss you.

It was a honor to have known you in 2 different periods of our live, separated by 30 years.

miss you Bob. had a lot of laughs and fun. you are still a great friend.

Barbara,
It is with great sadness that I heard of Bob's passing. We met back in the early 70's and spent many great days swapping tales. From bartending at Myskyns to our ill fated and short lived "moving business". We laughed at that enterprise over a few beers through the years. I was so glad to run into him at the nursery in Awendaw after many years where our paths separated. He always offered a helping hand whenever it was needed, and was a true gentleman. The world is a lesser place without him in it. Carl Allen

Was sad to hear about Bob. My first memory of Bob was at Chehaw River Nursery. I was new to the industry and Bob was always helpful and willing to share his knowledge. Our paths would cross many times over the next 25 plus years as we both made a living in the Green industry. He was always a pleasure to call on, to do business with, and to compete with!.
He was a true gentleman. He will be missed.
My prayers go out to Barbara and the rest of the family.

Barbara - I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that you and Bobby are in my prayers.

Sincere condolences from a band member in Trenton TN. Bob was a fabulous drummer. Rest in peace my childhood friend.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I met Bob McKenzie around 1979 when he was bartending at Francis Willard's in Charleston. Little did I know that he and I would end up working together at Myskyn's Tavern on Market Street a few years later. Karen and I were proud to have Bob stand with us at our wedding in 1983. We remember him as a friend, a father, and a husband. Bob was a lover of fine music and always a true Gentleman. Rest in peace my friend.

Thinking of you and your son

I met Bob in the early 80's when he was a bartender downtown Charleston. Then we worked together at the Good Earth Landscaping for a few years.
Always a delightful fella to see when we would bump into each other in Mt. Pleasant. Barbara, my condolences to you and family.....Vaya con Dios My Friend.

I really can't say which came first. His helpfulness in business
matters or the friendship that started with that great smile & laughter.
His personality was one of the joys for all of us working in the Green
Industry. Rest in Peace Bob.

Barbara,I was very saddened to hear of Bob's passing. It is hard to believe that so much time has gone.
I realize that we have not seen each other in quite awhile. You both were among my first friends after I moved to Charleston in 1974. I enjoyed visiting you and Bob, especially watching basketball. Bobby and Connie were always welcoming and fun to be around.
I wish that our friendship had remained stronger through the years but I cannot change that. What I can say is that Bob was a great guy to have as a friend (and bartender !) He loved his family, but you know that. I hope to see him in Heaven one day. I'm not sure I'll make it but I'm sure he'll be there. My condolences to you and Bobby.

We are sorry for your loss. My husband and i enjoyed his humor for many years as a client of Low Country Nursey. We will definitely plant a maple in his honor .

We always loved Bob. He always had a big heart and tried to not show it. He will be missed and always in our hearts.

Having worked for Clemson Univesity I would meet Bob at Chehaw River nursery in green pond and later would work with him during some of my inspections at low country wholesale nursery. He was always a gentleman

Thanks Bob for your guidance and friendship through out the years. I will miss you dearly.

It is with great sadness to learn of Bob's passing. He truly was a unique, well respected gentleman. We've know Bob since his days at Carolina Nurseries. God speed our friend.
