A good friend was called home today. His name is Bob Paeth, I have known Bob for the past 16 years. Bob was one of those people who was every one's friend. If you met Bob either in person, on the phone or by email you had a friend for life.
Bob, was diagnosed with lung cancer late last year. He had surgery in April. Since that time he has had to take medication for a blood clotting problem, a by-product of the surgery. Sunday night one of those clots made it's way to his brain, Bob suffered what the hospital called "catastrophic seizures". Bob, never regained consciousness. This morning at 7:15 God figured his body had suffered enough and called him home.
Bob, showed every one he met the kind of respect we all want but seldom ever get. It's not that often you get to see a living example of human kindness.
My friend your passing has left a void in every life that you touched. We are all better people because of your friendship. But, we miss you terribly.

Dave, I only met Bob this summer, but he is as you described "friend for life". I doubt I will ever run across another person so full of love for other people. RIP
