Sandra asked Jeff Hobbs:

Dear Mr. Hobbs, I just finished your book and can tell you that it will haunt me for a long time. Your tireless effort to tell Rob’s story is an incredible testament to your friendship. I can’t even begin to imagine the ongoing grief that continues with all of Rob’s family and friends. Can you tell me what house is on the cover of the book? It doesn’t seem to be the house on Chapman or Smith. Thank you.

Jeff Hobbs Hello, thank you so much for the kind words--it means a lot to think that Rob continues to impact people for the better. Sorry for the delay--I really am not on social sites at all, but I'm trying to do more lately as my next book, called Show Them You're Good, comes out in August. Anyway, I'm very grateful. The house on the cover is the property on Greenwood Avenue that he owned during the last few years of his life (it's not actually his suitcase in the photo--he was carrying it for a friend). Sincerely, Jeff

Hello Jeff my name is D and I have a couple of things to say to you. Let's start with I mean this in a very respectful way possible, but why did you make this book? What did you want to gain from making this book? (respectfully). Because I feel and this is an opinion but I feel like a black person should be telling this story of Robert. like you gave us insight but you didn't inform us on who Robert really is.

Danielle Clark asked Jeff Hobbs:

Hi Jeff, I am absolutely MOVED by the life of Robert Peace and in my opinion, his name will live on because of you. Your book may very well save a lot of lives or "wake up" those that may be in a similar situation. Robert Peace did not die in vain and perhaps God put him on earth for those to learn from his mistakes. My heart breaks for Jackie. Is she still living in Newark. Is there a way to reach her, via email?
