so sorry for your loss
Bob,
You have my deepest sympathy. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting you in person but I always enjoy reading about your adventures. Stan |
Bob,
I never met her, or you for that matter, but your post touched me deeply. I will keep you both in prayer. |
Prayers coming your way
Bob, I am very sorry for your loss.

Deepest sympathy
I have only met you through these forums but like others have been moved by your loss. The connection we all have through our love of flying and RV's in particular is heartwarming.
My thoughts are with you and all those who knew and loved her. |
So sorry for your loss Bob. May Jeanine rest in peace.

Sorry for your loss
Bob,
I only know you through your postings on this forum, and I always look forward to reading them. Tonight I was saddened to read your post and learn of your loss, but I was also touched by how you talked about Jeanine and the wonderful times you had together. Words fail me, but please know you are in my thoughts. |
Bob, I'm saddened by your loss.
For Whom the Bell Tolls by John Donne No man is an island, Entire of itself. Each is a piece of the continent, A part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. As well as if a promontory were. As well as if a manor of thine own Or of thine friend's were. Each man's death diminishes me, For I am involved in mankind. Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee. |
Bob,
In reading all these posts, all in just one day, I am impressed with the effect and respect you have on people in this community. Jeanine was obviously a blessing to you, and you must have been a blessing to her as well. I wish you peace and fond memories of those times you two shared together. |
Im sorry for your loss
Bob
We have never met, i have read your posts and when i saw her name it felt like a family member. thoughts and prayers from a aviation brother. |
Sorry to here about your loss Bob. Sounds like she was an amazing person.
|
So sorry
Our prayers are with you Bob.
|
I was saddened to see this. I was fortunate to meet her at the Memphis SARL race a few years ago.
|
That you all
Thank you all for your heartfelt thoughts. We were married for 44 years, it seems to have passed in an instant and life will never be the same joyful experience it was when I was with her. I read every one of your messages and I know you thought about them and tried to give me comfort - they have. Know that for the future - human kindness does not go unnoticed by the receiver.
Thank you for Jeanine and I. Bob Axsom The viewing will be 9 am and the service will be at 1 pm in the chappel at the Resurrection Cemetary located at: 6901 Mackenzie Road St. Louis, MO 63123 Located South of St. Louis, MO off Interstate 44 |
Bob,
Your words tell of a lovely person, the pictures show a beautiful women. You have been blessed. I know that it sounds like a clich?, but truly she is now in a better place. We celebrate for her, and mourn with you. Our prayers are with you. |
Very sorry for your loss. I'm sure everyone here will think of her when along with other loved ones we have lost or watched suffer the from breast cancer when donating toward a cure. Without the support she gave you through the years in your aviation passions and endeavors, many of us would probably not have enjoyed your wisdom on this forum. Stay with us as it sounds like this is what she would have wanted.

Bob, My deepest condolences. Jeanine was a rare find, to provide you with the encouragement and support that she did. May those memories continue to provide you a gentle tailwind...
|
I am deeply sorry for your loss.

Passing
Bob,
Very sorry for your loss. |
Another Angel...
Has taken wing...she will be flying with you for eternity; grieve, weep, and face life as we all here know you will, until we meet,
Blue Skies, Jerry |
Bob,
Cancer took my mother in law 5 years ago. She was one of my dearest friends, and my wife's rock. Cancer is especially despised in this household, and my wife dedicates much of her work to researching the rare form that took her best friend and mom. Please accept our deepest sympathies, and prayers for strength and comfort during this very difficult time. Mark and Melissa Ohlau |
thinking of you...
What can be said, really... I hope that you continue to be involved with racing and that you carry fond memories of your time together whenever you fly.
|
Bob,
So sorry for your loss. May the memories of 44 great years together bring you comfort, and although some of us haven't had the privilege of meeting you or Jeanine, know that you have many people keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. |
Location Error
I do not expect anyone to be there but I don't want to mislead anyone. I had previously stated that both the viewing and the funeral service would be tomorrow (1-9-12) at the chapel in the Resurection Cemetary in St. Louis County (Missouri, USA) but that is not correct. The Funeral service will still be there at 1pm but the viewing will be at the Kutis Funeral home in downtown St. Louis at the corner of Arsenal and Gravois. I'm sorry for the confusion it was due to a misunderstanding on my part.

Sorry Bob for your loss
Bob, I can see from reading the comments that there is lots of respect for you and your wife. Lots of caring. I have only been on the forum for a few weeks and don't know you - but I lost my mother to breast cancer about 13 years ago. What a terrible disease and it is so prevalent. From my wife, my family, and I, we want you to know we have you in our hearts and prayers. We wish you well in this difficult time and know peace will be with you.
Rockwood and Deb |
Thank you all
It's time to go.

Bob,
Very sorry for your loss. |

May God Bless her soul.
May God Bless you. Don |

We here at ASA have not had the pleasure of meeting you or your wife in person but feel we know you from your contributions here. We all are somewhat diminished with the loss of one of our community. Bob our harts and prayers go out to you and yours in this trying time. Regards, Allan and staff of ASA.

Bob, so sorry for your loss.

I think I need to report the case to those with responsibility
Thanks again all. I have been stewing over this for several days now and as some who know me and how I docummented the build of our RV-6A are probably aware, I tend to keep pretty good records and can methodically correlate specific photographs with actual times and events. There is a lot that went on in Jeanine's case that needs improvement and I think I need to report the facts to those with different responsibilities in the research and treatment of breast cancer - and hospital care as well. Maybe it can help prevent someone else's loss.
Bob Axsom |
Keep posting, Bob. Your VAF family CARES!

On behalf of everyone here at your old stomping grounds, our deepest sympathies on your loss, Bob...

Loss
I lost my wife of 25 years in April 2010, so I can say without reservation I know what you are going through. If it helps any, time will make a big big difference and help heal. When I talk about her now it's with a smile on my face.
If I can give any advice it would be to cherish the time you had with her and keep all the good memories fresh. |
I Appreciate your experienced input and I am truely sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry

There really isn't anything I can say that would compare to your loss. I'm sorry I had not seen this post sooner.. Frank |

Just a little side note on cancer research
I received this from the American Cancer Society this morning regarding a package I submitted to them with a lot of information about our first hand experience for treatment application research that they lost and I am painfully going through construction of a replacement:
"Once received, your study will be forwarded to the appropriate American Cancer Society advisory group for consideration as part of their overall role in determining American Cancer Society positions and actions on a given topic. The American Cancer Society carefully monitors the scientific literature on a regular basis and, as with any reputable scientific organization, develops or amends its positions based on the breadth of this literature and not on the results of any single study. Please note that the Society does not perform research but provides grants to qualified researchers who choose their own subject to study. Furthermore, due to our large volume of mail, you might not receive acknowledgment that your cancer cure was received."Who is watching the store? Bob Axsom |
