He also attended New Mexico State University and transferred to the University of Texas at El Paso and majored in Mechanical Engineering. He enjoyed building and repairing cars and electronics.

Robert had many hobbies and talents which he shared with his family and friends. Robert enjoyed cooking and grilling for his loved ones. Robert was an amazing artist particularly drawing portraits. He was a huge movie collector and appreciated music. Robert especially thrived on the challenge of perfecting his sound system so everyone could enjoy the bass.

Robert will be forever in the hearts of his parents Fausto and Julia Cruz, his brother Jonathan Cruz and, sisters Anna Flores, Kristina Blackmon, Angel Cruz, Julie Monarez, and Elizabeth Cruz.

'We Remember Them' by Sylvan Kamens & Rabbi Jack Riemer
At the rising of the sun and at its going down
We remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter
We remember them.
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring
We remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer
We remember them.
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn
We remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends
We remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us
as we remember them.
When we are weary and in need of strength
We remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart
We remember them.
When we have joy we crave to share
We remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make
We remember them.
When we have achievements that are based on theirs
We remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us
as we remember them.
