Tribute to Bob

Grandpa Bob passed away Jan 27, 2010 ~ Tributes to Bob
Bob was 90 years young. He lived in Ashland, Oregon.

Hi everyone - Bob Kevan passed on this evening, in his home, surrounded by devoted friends, quietly and at peace. We will miss him.
Much love, Kathy

I'm so sorry. But as I've said to you, what a brave and courageous way to take your leave of life, being in control of how it ends and knowing when it's time to go, like the Native Americans did. It makes sense. It's just hard on the ones who have to carry on and mourn their loss. What a gentleman he was and in the little time I knew him, I felt his love for and his interest in his family and what was going on in the world. My best to you, Bill, and Jason and the rest of your family. Even though you had expected the outcome, it's still a shock when it happens. You were there for him and that's what counts. Best wishes. Kathleen Scrimgeour

We are all better people because Bob touched our lives, he was blessed with dignity, grace, a gusto for life, respect for others, love of learning, leadership, and helping others less well off.
Ron Garfield

He did it his way! I know he will be forever loved and missed.
Love you, Pam Francis

Sorry to hear that Dad. He is a good man though. I think he lived great and that he'll die great.
Love you! ~Rob Kevan

I will miss Grandpa Bob.
Love, Sister Crystal Kevan

My friend was going to take this sideboard to the dump. We are using it for our TV stand and the drawers hold our DVD's and videos. I love it.

New Year

What a boring week as Dan would say. We finished reading the Percy Jackson series. The movie is coming out in Feb. It is about a demigod, son of Posiden, that is purported to have stolen Zeus's thunderbolt. I can't wait to see the costumes. There is a preview on youtube but it doesn't show any of the costumes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQAj51WZzJc
Andrew had a bb tournament in Hermistan and won both games on Saturday. Alas we choose not to play on the Sabbath. Andrew didn't get much play time.
Dunc left on Saturday. I stayed home and cleaned the house. Two weeks is a long time for this fam to be together. I did purchase a couple of items on sale after Christmas. So much for getting rid of things we no longer use. I did take two bags to the DI. I did clean out the costume room to make room for more treasures...
Happy New Year! We watched the Florence Nightengale DVD with Timothy Dalton. then we read more Perch Jackson.
