Guest guest Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 Dear friends, Thank you for your lovely e-notes. Bob passed away yesterday in the hospital. It was NOT from CML. He was still in complete remission on Sprycel. He had many other medical problems and was just very tired. He died peacefully in his sleep, he just stopped breathing. His son and daughter-in-law and I were with him and my daughter from San Diego came just a few minutes later, so he was surrounded with love to take with him on his journey. We were able to stay with him for a long while and it was very hard to say good by, but it was a blessing also, because he just needed to go to be with the Lord and see all his family and friends who have gone before. Again, thank you all for your support and encouragement over the years. Yes, C, he was the Desert Tortoise, until he went on Sprycel in 2004. take care and blessed be Wilhelm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
