    Default Brother Bob McG Needs Us

    One of the original members (if not THE original) of this forum, and easily one of the best men on this forum, Bob McG, is getting his ass kicked by life again. I'll leave it to Bob if he wants to share the details. If you love and respect Bob as much as I, drop him a line here or a PM to show him that you care.

    I don't know you, Bob, except for your postings here -- always level-headed, considerate, and informative, with a great blend of humor. Whatever you're confronting, best of luck! Approach it the same way you do things around this crazy place. That's a winning combination.

    Bob,

    Whatever it is you are going through, just keep in mind that things will get better and having the support of your friends will help you overcome anything.

    Good luck to you!!

    Frank has it.

    Bob's lovely partner Geri, has just lost her mom. It (naturally) wasn't easy on any of the people involved. I was able to meet Geri, and she's a sweetheart. Bob has got a terrible history regarding the entry of the new year.

    You great folks are already doing everything you can.
