Robert was born on April 12, 1928 in Endicott, New York and raised by his paternal grandparents, the late Raymond Edward and Ruth Moody Hart. His entire life was dedicated to family and service to his country.

Through his service and fellow Navy shipmen, he met his lifelong love and constant companion, Barbara Ann Hess Hart, his wife of almost 62 years.
