Robert Joseph 'Sheffy' Shefbuch Here is a man that stands 6 foot 2 and wore a size 12 shoe. With a cigarette in one hand and a beer in the other. There was no mistaken it was none other! Robert J. Shefbuch is his name. He'll extend his arm to shake your hand. He'll let you know that you are his friend! He grows a garden as many as fourteen?? He's been doing it for years? since spring 1957 ! If you stop by?.When the season is right?? You'll have fresh food on your table that night! He believes in our country as you can see?.. He is our hero?..he was a Marine! He came from a big family children of eight. Most of them are gone?..except Aunt's Virginia and Jane. He has three kids of his own?..There's Rodney, Debra, and Russell? Let's not forget his adopted son???? Bruce. If Robert ain't home?. You can bet!?. He's out there somewhere? Gone fishing!!! (Poem by Terri Shefbuch 6/25/2011) COVINGTON ? Robert J.
