Bob he sounds like a truly amazing person and reading your post about his life helped me to be even gladder for his joy, and for God's goodness in creating Him. I will pray for you and his wife and family. Thanks for posting this.

After two days, he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him.
Let us know; let us press on to know the LORD; his going out is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth.
