He specifically recalled showing up late for a march because he forgot his raincoat, much to the indignation of his cohorts. Robert also lived in Alabama during the U.S. He had a close relationship with his sister, Cookie Freeman, who was the smarter and more responsible of the siblings, and often referred to Robert as her 'Favorite Dumbass.'
