I am very sorry to hear this sad news.
Bob talked with so much love about the beautiful roses in Ireland: "Their color was very vivid and some were the size of cabbages." It made me feel that Bob's heart was like those roses.
My thoughts go out to Bob's family. Wishing them peace and comfort in this difficult time.
Thank you, P.J. , announcing that--I just heard the sad news. The Dublin Irish Festival has lost a great volunteer and the Columbus area Irish community has lost a great friend. May the peace of the season remain with his family in their time of sorrow.
This comment is actuall for all those friend of dear Bob. Since 1991, Bob has been my second father. It is with deep regret that I have to inform you that, on Saturday, December 20th, 2008, Bob passed away after a three week illness. Please keep Bob, his wife, children and 5 grandchildren in your prayers during this holiday season. A memorial service is planned for next Saturday in Columbus, at the Shamrock Club.

Please keep him in your prayers. Bob is a lover of all tings irish (and life in general) and it is obvious that he considers all of you, truely, his friends. Again, please pray for him and if possible, send a card to him at Riverside Hospital, Columbus, OH 43214. His friend, Mike H
Heey there Bob, I love shooting but I never shot with live rounds. That was just an airgun in the garden of a friend of mine (we took shots on a picture of Hitler). We cant get weapons easy in holland althow I would love to have one. Shoting is fun and i'm not bad at it at all. Paintballing, lasergameing, airgun and online shoters. I have a huge fasination for the 2ndWW. I've been to Normandie france for 3 days. Seen undiscibeble things. I was at Utha beach at the moring of 6 june this year. If you want to se pictures let me know, i'll put them on my site.

hi Bob, and thanks. I would love to go back to the Connemara next spring. I think that will be lovely with all the pretty wild flowers! Clifden is actually on my list. Thanks for telling me about the Lakeside B&B and its wonderful owners. I will definitely keep it in my thoughts.
Have you been to Ireland in Springtime?
hi Bob, that sounds like an interesting book. Sometimes I feel so amazed that it has been only about a bit over 60 years since all those events happened. We used to have these big celebrations on the 5th of May, with a lot of the veterans joining in. That is almost past now too. But it stays good to remember, for freedom, mutual acceptance and tolerance.
Interesting to read you feel so at home on the west coast of Ireland. I had that same feeling in Connemara.
Hello and sorry for the late response... thank you for your kind comment ... flattery is all ways in good taste ;) ... unfortunately i am not able to come on to LI as much as i would like to....(explaining the delayed response) but everyone seems very nice! How is life treating you these days?

Our grandfather was John Bowe, he came to America 1896±. I believe he was from county Leix(Laois) - same. Our grandmother was a McDonnell and came from county Cork.
We hope to get there soon.
