LivingLovingHeartbreaker Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I remember reading somewhere that Robert's dad passed away in 2003. But i'm not sure how accurate that is though. Hopefully someone that knows will answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe (Liverpool) Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Well he's about 10 years older than me and both my parents died at the age of 84, so I presume his parents are dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Are Robert 's parents still alive? Robert's mother passed away in Sep/Oct 1997, leading to a break in the studio sessions for 'Walking Into Clarksdale'. Robert's father passed away peacefully at the age of 86 on August 15, 2004.
