????-2007

Dear Rob aka nocrash our heart are broken because yours was not healed.

Rob you gave us all so many laughs, smiles and wonder moments shared here on the web. You fought so hard for those whom you loved and for those who loved you as a dear friend far away. You are now with us all forever and your memory will not fade from those of us blessed to know you and have been witness to your strength, courage and humor.

How we all wish this story had a different ending one with a return home from the hospital and pictures of you and your kids all grown up. But that was not the plan, for what ever the reason, it was just not the plan. Rob I will promise you this - we will continue to work hard so that your children’s future is better, the care improved for the next generation and that your grandchildren someday may read about HCM in the history books as one more disease patients took a part in ending thanks to partnerships with scientists.

For now friend I say good bye knowing that you will remain a guiding spirit to those looking for friendship, support and a helping hand out here on the internet.

Haley,
Your strength has been remarkable and you are a very special woman. Rest in knowing that you did all that could be done (if not more then some suspect possible). You were a wonderful advocate for Rob and we all know how much he loved you and the kids. You always have friends here at the HCMA, I hope you know that.

Rest in peace Rob you will be missed,
Lisa
