Today Robert turns 60.
August 11th, 2024 was the last day he was seen.
Since then, we’ve lived in a strange in-between place of not knowing how long you “continue,” not knowing what the right thing is to do on days like this.
But one thing we do know:
Robert loved his birthday.
He loved the fuss.
He loved the messages.
He absolutely loved checking Facebook.
So… doing nothing felt wrong.
We don’t pretend he’ll read this, but
If you have a photo, a funny memory, a classic “Robert moment” please share it in the comments.
Lets remember Robert’s best moments today. Robert Schroder Caryn Tamari Paul Schroder Selwyn Schroder

I haven’t written on this page for a long time. After attending the festival in August 2025, I had reached a place of believing that nothing sinister had happened to Robert, and that he likely fell while hiking.
The arrest of Bevan van Druten for the murder of Nicky van Heerden and the fact that he frequented events like AfrikaBurn and Louvain Burn, understandably raised questions. Many people have reached out with care and concern, and it is so heartwarming to feel how much Robert is still remembered and held in people’s thoughts.
For clarity: from what we understand, Bevan was not allowed access to the Louvain summer event in January 2024 and was turned away. He also did not attempt to access the August Burn, when Robert went missing.
Our private investigator is involved and is helping us look into anything that may be relevant. We are grateful for the care shown by so many.
Thank you for continuing to hold Robert Schroder in your hearts ❤️. Caryn Tamari
