| Bob was a great inspiration to us all from that time seven years ago he established our class prostate cancer support group shortly after having been diagnosed with advanced PC. And we owe him so much for having reached out to the class with his own PC story, thereby encouraging others to speak out and seek support. It was his inspiration and brave leadership that succeeded in organizing our group to support diagnosed classmates and encourage lifestyle changing preventive and control measures among all classmates. What he initiated has carried over to many other classes as well. His bravery and determination in fighting the cancer was further inspiration to us. He will be sorely missed, but long remembered--a good friend and a great man. |
