In Loving Memory Of Robert Lavender

On Monday evening, July 17th, 2023, my husband, Robert Lavender was preparing to make his way home when he was tragically killed by unknown assailants.

This occurred just a few steps away from his place of work, Burgers Grilled Right in the Brookland neighborhood. My husband was known to bring a smile to the faces he came across and loved working within that community.

As the manager, he ensured that every person felt love and enjoyed their time in the establishment. As a husband, he was the provider and foundation of our home and as a father and grandfather, he was one of the most loving and supportive individuals.

He leaves behind many family members, including his parents, wife, children and grandchildren. In addition, he leaves behind a large group of friends who cared for him deeply and are saddened by this tragic loss.

We are now faced with planning a funeral for him and are asking for assistance as we prepare to bury a good man. We appreciate all of the support that we have received so far and know that we have a long way to go.

This is the only GoFundMe account for Robert Lavender.
