On Wednesday, November 13, 2019 Robert Lush passed away at the age of 66 after a long battle of cancer. Robert was born in Washington D.C. on May 17, 1953.
He retired April 2010 from the Maryland National Capitol Park and Planning Commission and moved to Florida in 2011.

He is survived by his wife, Dianna; step son, Douglas; a brother, James; a sister, Donna; two grandchildren; five great grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
