To all of our dear friends and followers......It is with great saddness that I have to tell you that on September 3, 2009 Bob lost his couragous battle with cancer. It has been a long and difficult 6 weeks since chemotherapy was discontinued near the end of July. Each day brought new challenges. Not only did he have extreme shortness of breath but he was unable to swallow almost anything and could only speak in a whisper (I admit, I did take advantage of that situation). In spite of all of the above, we were able to make what would be our last camping trip the first week in August. It was to Gettysburg with my two oldest grandsons (and we all know how how much Bob liked children!!!) but he did love traveling and living in the motorhome. Thanks to everyone for your cards, calls of concern and prayers. So, much sooner than we had expected ,this particular journey, for us, has come to an end. Our time together was brief ,but we did have one heck of a time and I will always have those memories in my heart. So goodby to my "Cowboy Bob".............'till we meet again..................
