    As a parent that lost his baby son I think that I can appreciate what you and your wife went through, Bob. It is humbling to hear those words about your daughter coming through. God bless you all.

    I don't think anyone can imagine the pain that comes with outliving your child. Even those who've been through it can hardly describe it. I hope everything works for the best. Love is infinite and undying, and regardless of where the two of you are, you'll surely be together.

    Saw you guys a few years back at the Newport Folk Festival with my family. We wished you kept playing and we would have stayed instead of moving on to Jimmy Buffet. You touched our souls then, and have at each performance we have been privileged to see since. I Listen to your songs to soothe my soul regularly and make me think about life. This shared experience cements it. God Bless and love you guys!

    She had a seven year remission. The cancer returned in 2020 and she had to have surgery. As of 2023 she is still with us. God bless. Also donate to Bob's charity work by googling his name and the word daughter. X
