Journal entry by Bob McLaughlin

               A life lived fully and well

Dear friends and family,

Bob was so loved.  We are planning two celebrations for him. The first one will be at Dañada House in Wheaton on April 16th.  The second which is still in the planning stages will be in June near Philadelphia where Bob grew up. 

we are expecting a large crowd and ask that you share the invite freely so no one is missed. The link is:

  • SPEAKING: We will set a schedule at some point to allow anyone who would like to share, some time at the microphone
  • MUSIC: Please bring your instruments. Bob loved music of every kind.
  • FOOD AND DRINK: We will have brunch type buffet set up and there will be coffee, tea and other beverages as well as beer and wine. We also had a family tradition of mimosas for celebration so of course there will be mimosas to toast a life well lived and a man most loved. 
  • OUTDOOR SPACE: The grounds are stunningly beautiful and a great place to walk if you should like a bit of fresh air. If possible there could be some bocce on the lawn

It hopefully will be a lovely day but it certainly will be a gathering of the people who loved Bob and want to share in his mantra…

Everyday you live well, you are well.
