Bad news about Wobble :(

Hi guys,

Unfortunately, I've got some bad news about Bob (Wobble).

I had an email earlier from Bob's daughter, letting me know that Bob has passed on after a ruptured aorta on Friday.

I know Bob had a great many friends in here, myself included, and I thought I should let you all know (Bob's daughter has OK'd this).

He was a good friend, one of the best, great fun, and I'll miss him

Sleep well, Bob

Re: Bad news about Wobble :(

Oh gosh...That's so sad. From what I read/read, he was a good man. I really like his style, and I looked forward to the familiar Wobble responses. I know I will miss him, and I really wish his family the best.

I'm just glad he's getting the best rest anyone can ever get. A good night to you, Bob.

Goodbye Wobble; See you on the other side!

This is how I feel right now.



I and many others enjoyed your presence here so much, and you are going to be so missed!
My thoughts are with you wherever you are and with your family who have suffered a great loss!

Goodbye Bob my friend, thanks for spending time with us all and letting us get to know you; See you on the other side!

Yep just us left. I believe this is my 1st death here. Had a few Blues Club members pass on though.

Thats just very sad.

At least we know what happened, and he didn't just disappear without a word.

My condolences to his family...

I can't believe my psycho kitty nemesis is gone. I don't know what I will do without seeing him blissfully firing away with his AK-47 anymore. A sad day to be sure.
