December 27, 1966 - May 3, 2011 . . .
Bob passed away at home this evening, around 6 pm. Sun was shining, glowing through the barely-there baby leaves on the trees in the backyard. The kind of afternoon that would have prompted him to sling his camera bag over his shoulder and head off to Afton or William O'Brien for a few hours alone . . . his dad was by his side when he took his last breath. I believe he planned it that way. . .

Jen -- As you can attest, life is often sofa king unfair, but all I can say at this time of sorrow is that I'm sofa king grateful that Bob came into your life. He made you sofa king happy...a kind of happiness I'd never seen you experience before you met him and for that I'm sofa king grateful to Bob for everything he sofa king meant to you. Long live the Sofa King!!!

ReplyDeleteDeepest condolences, Jen. Bob (and you) put up an admirable fight.
ReplyDeleteMy deepest sympathies to you, Jenn, to your family and to Bob's as well. This blog has brought so many of us back in touch with Bob and "introduced" us to you. I will continue to follow your courageous and brutally honest journey that you have shared with us all. Sending many prayers and love...Cherie (Carlson) Trondson
ReplyDeleteMy deepest sympathies Jen.
ReplyDeleteAs I have said many times through this ordeal you and Bob taught me a lot about life, dealing with sickness and what not to say :) You have shown me true love....true commitment and selflessness.
I didn't know Bob well, but got to know him through the years of knowing you and more so over this last year and a half. Through you and Bob I met more of your amazing family and friends - you and Bob have touched many lives and I have no doubt that through you and all of his he will continue to do so.
I love you and you are always close to my heart.

our deepest sympathies Jen,
ReplyDeleteRonda and I only had the opportunity to meet Bob once, last summer, but your blog made me feel like I knew him as a long lost friend. I hated hearing how you both suffered, and I shed a tear today when I heard the sad news. I'm happy he is no longer suffering, I'm sad you've lost your best friend, and I know we are all stronger for being allowed to know you both. Corey and Ronda
My deepest sympathies. God bless.
ReplyDeleteJenny pough!!! I am sending you a big big hug! I am so sorry to hear about Bobby! I know there are so many things that you don't want to hear when you have to say goodbye to someone you love so much ...... Just know he is on a better place and pain free, he is blowing you kisses everytime it is windy, giving you a hug everytime one of the pups want your attention and loves you unconditionally. Celebrate his life tomorrow and cherish all the Memories. See you soon! Love you!
