Hi Aaron, Robert is from my family - his grandfather was F. W. Froemke who was a land developer in Florida (after a career in banking in Ransom County, ND). F.W. and Effie Froemke had 4 sons. The sons are in Military Men of ND, a WWI book recognizing military service. F.W. Froemke was my great-grandmother's younger brother. They both died at about age 52, only 2 years almost to the day apart of heart attacks. Robert had a brother Richard (Rich) who had a radio show on PBS. Quite a talented family.
