Robert our tallest houseguest would have his own floor in this home, ornate ceilings, gigantic windows and palm trees in his bedroom. All furnishings bespoke to fit his height exactly.
Robert's bed would be the most glorious bed and every morning we would serve him fresh pineapples and warm croissants. We would be awkward together, swap clothes and laugh all day long.
(Robert Pershing Wadlow 1918-1940)
